why have a home page?

Step 2 in my homepage redesign: Why do I keep a Web site? What do I want to say?

I've had a home page since 1995, and lots of weird stuff has piled up (sorry, no links yet):

Norwegian:

CV, bio, contact info
Link lists
Pictures of friends and family
Video
Writings on classical music
A Mozart hypertext
Various old homepage designs
Stuff about my radio work
Stuff about the wind orchestra I used to play in
Writings on rhetoric
Web design tips
A course in XHTML and CSS
Slides and presentations

English

CV, bio, contact info
Research papers and links
Blog
Slides and presentations

In the new version, I want to keep the site more focused to my research interest. It will have quick writing (blog), more thoughtful writing (short articles, slide shows, popular versions of research results) and slow writing (research papers and project descriptions). The rest will be hidden.
