A Change of Direction

I don't think anyone who follows this blog is subscribed to me on YouTube. There may be people who follow me here and watch my videos there, or vice versa. Anyway, I'm not sure how many people to whom this applies will be reading this. But yeah, it's a medium through which to express myself so who cares.
Basically I've deleted most of my YouTube videos. To be honest when the YouTube craze first started up I was a bit taken by the whole thing about talking to a camera, connecting with the world and really making something of it. Dan Brown style (the YouTube vlogger and Rubik's cube teacher, not the author of, among others, The DaVinci Code). Needless to say that didn't really work out. Currently I have a couple of hundred subscribers, and am eligible for revenue sharing. But really I haven't done anything with YouTube barring the occasional video from cubing competitions for months, maybe a year or more? So probably no-one will notice I'm gone. Regardless, I'm quite embarrassed about most of those videos. Most are from about 3 years ago. I stuttered, spoke poorly and didn't really express very many good ideas, which I find much easier to do when I write stuff down, hence the blog. If I'm honest I was never really comfortable talking to a camera, it always felt a bit weird. But there you go, all those old philosophy videos are gone. I'll hopefully be updating this blog more often now, with stuff related to philosophy, trying to offer evidence for Christianity etc. I'll keep the channel for cubing videos, because I quite like filming stuff, and I do rather like those videos where things are more 'natural' rather than me talking at a camera. Maybe if I ever feel like having a rant or getting something off my chest I'll post a vlog there. But mostly it'll be cubing, and other random videos, such as holiday footage for instance. I'll try to keep this blog updated a bit more.
I don't really have an ending for this one. Can't think of anything witty, so I'll just end it.
Bye.
