Consumerism. Conspicuous consumption. Gadgets, whizzbangs, and gizmos. Technology… These themes combined begin to define Aimless Words. Aimless Words is a weblog concerning my consumer wanderings. Linux qualifies, sound cards qualify, laptops qualify and so do MP3 players, personal digital video recorders, home routers, radar detectors, home theater, blenders, and satellite radio. If Best Buy sells it, Aimless Words might have a post or two concerning it. If Walmart sells it, Aimless Words cares. If it has a battery slot or an electrical plug, Aimless Words wants one.

But that’s not all. If it can be bought, you might find it in these pages. If it is rentable, I probably want one. Aimless Words aims to be a sort of review site, bucket full of information, and weblog all-in-one. Some posts will not fit neatly into this definition but I do promise to entertain and educate with every post. I am very opinionated as will become apparent. I am inquisitive. I thirst for knowledge. Most important, I want to share! Ah, the height of hubris.

Welcome.
