The Case of the Missing Blog Entry

I think this is a case that maybe even Sherlock Holmes himself couldn't solve. A week ago, I believe, I posted an entry to this blog titled "On the Matter of Blogs". In that post I gave a brief essay about the nature of blogs, and described how one must continually keep a blog up-to-date with new and interesting entries. This is especially important when you have thousands (if not millions) of people who regularly turn to blogs like this one as a source of inspiration, hope, and joy! After that, I delved into some science fiction about a self-working blog program--a program that would track my thoughts and actions, and then automatically post entries to the blogs within specific parameters that I would define from the outset. (Without those parameters, there's potential for some embarrassing things to be posted!) Of course, such a self-working blog would take away the personal touch. Plus it would be one more step towards that day when machines will rule the world.

However, somehow that blog entry disappeared into cyberspace. It's gone, and I have no way of recovering it. I have no idea where it went. So we'll just call this "The Case of the Missing Blog Entry." If you happen to find that blog entry floating around somewhere in cyberspace, please let me know! I would hate to think that someone has compromised the security of this blog and actually stole the entry. Who knows. It's a mystery that may never be solved.
