Here’s more evidence of the arm-related carnage after the blood drive at work. I’m worried this picture reveals more about me as a person than the poor job done by the nurse who took my blood. See the notes.

Reader Question: The Impact of Blogging on Travel


Image by LeeLeFever
We recently received a nice email from Nath at Blue Fronier Media. Nath questions…

Firstly, how much has running this blog taken over the ‘mission’ that you guys have embarked upon?

Hi Nathan!
What a can of worms you have opened. We like talking about this stuff… Let’s see…about the mission…

TwinF is a huge part of our experience – I am personally thinking about it all the time – usually in terms of what would make fantastic content and where the next Web connection is going to come from (man, I sound like a junky). As for mission though – TwinF was part of the mission from the beginning. We saw it as an opportunity to travel and experiment at the same time. We had a hypothesis that a new type of travel is possible now because the Internet makes it so simple to collect information and meet new people. In testing this hypothesis, I get to learn new things for my work with Common Craft. So, we’re very motivated to keep things rolling. I’d also say that our hypothesis has proven to be right – blogs and the Internet have enabled us to learn about places and meet people we never would have known otherwise. TwinF has helped us make our travel world much smaller and more localized. We call it the "Long Tail of Travel", if you’re familiar with that thought.

Has it enriched the trip…something to keep you interacting with your world and — in the case of a travel diary like yours perhaps — ensuring that you keep engaging critically with what’s going on around you; chasing the next post, as it were).

It’s a double-edged sword. It is incredible to know that people are watching and are ready to help, but it’s also intimidating sometimes. I honestly worry about looking like a rookie or saying something insensitive. Aside from that, the notion of sharing something on the web has pushed us into places and situations that we may not have pursued otherwise. The perfect example is eating weird things in Asia – that would not have been so fun without video and TwinF as a means to share it. Also, it has made us really reckon about how a place makes us feel because we want to be as authentic as possible. I have no regrets – I would say blogging has enriched more than detracted by a long shot.

Also, Member Travel Experiences along with comments and emails has enriched the trip immeasurably. We found some of our favorite spots by asking for advice from our readers.

Has it become a pain at times when you’d just rather blow TwinF off and be another hedonistic, aimless vagabonding vagrant?

I have a small voice in the back of my head that is constantly keeping track of the length of time between posts and sometimes it is a bit too loud. But, that voice is not specific to TwinF, I’ve heard it since my first blog and I’m used to it.
It is the administrivia that gets ancient… Finding a connection, uploading pictures, trying to use the mobile phone, dealing with comment spam, etc. If wifi was ubiquitous and the technology worked consistently, we would have no complaints.
Blowing off TwinF has never even been a possibility and I reckon we would both count it as a failure if we did. TwinF is a project that are both committed to seeing through to the end and I reckon we’re lucky that we have such fun doing it.

But, the ban was lifted afterwards under the condition that these would be made and owned only for the artistic value. As many US soldiers secretly bought authentic samurai swords, many could be found in the US till today. But, most of the swords found today are for show only and not to be used in any type of combat.

Authentic samurai swords are made from Japanese steel known as Tamahagane. Two different steels, a softer one inside and a harder one wrapped around it, are combined to make the blade. Thus the blade has a hard, razor sharp edge for cutting and the core is able to absorb shocks, reducing the chance of getting the blade broken or bent. File markings are done on the sword-blade, which are used to assess the aging of the steel. There are many companies that make replica of authentic samurai swords. The swords are made with a fantastic deal of decoration to make them more appealing.
