Just Post!

Sunday, January 21, 2024

I dwell briefly on the philosophy I'd like to take with blog posts, and on the state of blogging on the internet in general.

On more than one occasion, I’ve set out to have a blog on whatever iteration of my website existed at the time. I’ve tried using it for full, written posts (some of which I already have here, though you can see the frequency of those, indicating how successful I’ve been), and sometimes I tried just making it a “here’s something I saw” situation. This time, with the recent push I’ve seen on Mastodon and across other small bloggers to blog (including the helpful You should blog by Keith Kurson) I’d like to be a part of the movement and just push myself to blog.

For too long, we’ve tossed our thoughts into the social media aether, and while I still there’s a place for that, I think we shouldn’t forget that there’s a place for blogs too.
