Posts in "Microposts"

The little ones. The thoughts and comments which are low friction and created in a heartbeat as they occur.

Then it clicked… the internet I miss didn’t include my mom. It was a bunch of nerds, creating stuff, showing it off, and most of the time doing it for free for others to enjoy.

And I couldn’t agree more. This is exactly the internet I miss as well. It’s what drew me to create my first blog in 2005 and what keep drawing me back now.

First steps of an updated personal site today. It will likely evolve a lot in the coming weeks especially while I work out how micro.blog, mastodon, and the site work together.

My code editor of choice (Atom) is no more. Anyone got any recommendations?

I miss blog rolls… the first time the personal web was in full swing everyone had blog rolls on their sites. Now very few people have this and it makes finding sites much harder.

Wandering around Oxford today after a few days in London. An end of January mini holiday is actually really nice and refreshing.

Not sure why but I now have a Mastodon account… I think intrigue more than anything is behind it.

Apple has released a new HomePod that looks like they haven’t learnt any lessons from the first one. It’s still $300 and still seems over engineered.

Finding myself drawn more and more towards analog tools lately. Considering buying some writing paper to write some letters to friends I haven’t seen for a while.
