Re: On Facebook
A few weeks ago I added a new feature to my blog: “external link posts”. This feature matches sites like Daring Fireball (a tech blogger who might predate the word “blog”) and I intend to use it a little like micro.blog, mostly for linking to things I do that live on other sites. You can see an example of this with “Dreams of Strife and Skaia”, though really the intention is that you’d never need to click into a post like this. Maybe the November index shows it better.
Re: On Blogs
Remember way back in the beginning (like a month ago) when this blog started? I said at the time that a blog filled with daily events was relatively boring, that no one would want to read it. And recently, I’ve found myself writing them. Very few people actually care about all that stuff that happened in Berkeley besides the people who were actually there…and maybe a few other S&D people as well.
“A blog is not a diary,” said I (that’s a fun abuse of the English grammar). Did you know the word “diary” comes from Latin “dies” or “day”?…
