I've decided to reinstall the talkback (comment system) feature on my journal engine in the hopes of attracting more traffic through discussions. It's a long shot but it's worth a try since I won't lose anything if I do so. I still used the CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) feature as a deterrent for spammers. It may be an inconvenience for some, but with the current trends on the internet today, I feel it is a necessity. I just made it in such a way that it would be readable even to those who are visually impaired like me.

I guess the main motivation for putting this feature back on is the recent reject I had in joining a certain group of local developers. I was stumped at first, pondering on the possible reasons behind the rejection. Maybe it was a lack of skill on my part, politics or a bunch of other things. Thankfully something good came out of it. It made me realize that I have to focus on myself and what I really want to achieve in my career and just let other people do their own thing.

In a world of corporations, marketing strategies, and monopolies, I would want to believe that people like me can still achieve our own form of success and get a humble piece of financial triumph to get through our day to day expenditures... and focus on what we love doing and keep doing it.
