Re: Blogging is Lifestreaming?

fak3r — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 01:07:28 -0000

I've had this with my blog, and I still haven't completely decided how I want to deal with it. My blog posts have really declined since I've started with Twitter, but I think that's good; things that are not a blog post don't need to be, but still, I want it to be part of my blog. I have a lifestream plugin populating a page, http://fak3r.com/lifestream-2/, but these are dropped after a few days, and I don't really like the daily digest option of putting all those in a new post each day, that's not readable. Another thing I've done is create a separate category called asides where I try to make those posts more like what you'd find on a Tumblr or Posterous site, those simple/quick posts be it a link, text, video or image. Still, I don't have these as integrated as I'd like and I don't want multiple blogs, fak3r is me, it's everything I'm interested in, why shouldn't it include microformats? Again, I think it should, but how...I'm still working on that.

I have a few "blogs" that I contribute to.

I keep a fairly updated site called http://planetmills.com that houses my pictures and stories of personal events in my life, that are mostly related to family and close friends. I don't advertise it alot but if someone really wanted to follow it...so be it.

My other blog, http://bingbonghotdog.com is my outlet...it's my animalistic artsy fartsy side being cut loose so that I don't go stir crazy. Sometimes the articles relate to lifestreaming I suppose and other times, they're just about ramblings in my head or my opinion of what's going on today.

I would say that my blogs are 100 percent 'on topic,' but I give myself a wide berth on coverage. I feel my readers visit for what I promise I would provide and may began to feel cheated if I deviate too much.

My husband and I are always talking about "planet Kiss My Ass" and this reminds me of it.
I would so love this book as I am starting my own art/creative type business this year.

Congratulations, Todd. You've put together some excellent posts, and it could really help people get through the learning period much easier. Like Chris, I found some new gems in there, too.

Todd, you've written a really good resource for folks starting out. Heck, I even learned a couple new tidbits and I work in new media for a living. I wholeheartedly recommend this eBook!

I couldn't seem to make the link copy over but I loved the expression that I'm only talking to you because I do not have my computer. This book sounds like it has great humor. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.

Glad to see it Greg. Also glad to be helping out there while it gets wound up to full steam. Folks are already checking it on a regular basis.

Todd...thanks for pointing out the new blog! If the momentum achieved in the first month is any indication, STLSMR is on it's way to being a great resource for people to stay on top of whats going on around town.

Like you said though, we need help. We need people having events to let us know about them and we need tips on local news...after all, we are just trying to help spread the word.

Thanks again for your help.

I really enjoyed this article. It hits close to home as I was told at work I need to start taking more initiative and risks as well as making my opionions and thoughts better known.

Thanks!

No way to get started. Even people who go to foreign countries can transfer money. Loads of requirements to rob. No instructions on how to get them. I'm sticking with Mafia Wars New York, until I get totally tired of it. It (Mafia Wars) already seems to have slowed down. All you can do is wait for energy. Can't afford to buy anything with real money. There needs to be a game with real action, not just waiting around for energy to press a button and wait again.
