A new direction for Telefpreen

So after a long, long hiatus from any sort of activity on my blog I've decided to retool it in the hopes of reviving it. My goal is to give it a new life and a new, more narrowly defined focus. As part of that, I should probably explain my motivations for this change.

To put it bluntly, no one gives a shit.

Now, as self-deprecating as that may seem, hear me out. Previously I had commented on various things that interested me, be it digital photography, motorcycles, cars, movies- the point being that there was no real unifying topic. On average, someone who is looking for a blog to read wants to see something more cohesive than what most personal blogs offer, which is a sort of context-free collage of random happenings in someone's life. I greatly enjoy talking about cars and motorsports, but someone looking for my thoughts on the F1 season probably couldn't care less about the vacation I spent in Tokyo. Likewise, I have a deep interest in military hardware and firearms, but someone here to see a range report on my AR15 chambered in .300 Blackout would likely be thoroughly disinterested in an article about the latest EDM I've been listening to. The problem I see is that the broader range of topics that I try to cover, the more and more dilute- and therefore less interesting- the blog as a whole becomes to read.

So, with that in mind I'm going to narrow the focus of Telefpreen into what the new subtitle proclaims it to be: "Video gaming, personal computers, and the occasional commentary on consumer electronics."

I mean, hey, the internet really could use another half-assed tech blog, couldn't it?
