So, I decided that I will blogging another try. I took a long break from it, mostly because I see little value in the posts I wrote. I took a few of the most promising ones, merged them into larger articles and posted on my wiki, with those “to be continued” slapped at the bottom. But strangely, somehow I can’t get myself to continue them. Writing short blog posts is so much easier – it may not be the optimal form for reading, but at least I’m getting it out of my head. Plus I’m practicing writing, which is always a nice thing. Nobody has to read it and I still benefit!

There was some temptation to use some new blogging software, like Zine or maybe even Wordpress (shudder). Or to make a new skin for this here Oddmuse, but that would be just distraction from the actual writing.

I tried microblogging on Identi.ca for a moment, but somehow it simply doesn’t work for me. Seems like the only way to say something in there is to post a link, and that will be instantly drowned in the heaps of other links posted in there. Plus, I want to read the blogs I like once in a while, daily, weekly or monthly, not every minute. Plus, and own page, with its own address and theme feels so much better.

Speaking of which, I will probably need to reorganize this wiki/blog a little, as there is a normal wiki that does most of the work now (at http://wiki.sheep.art.pl). Everything in its time, writing first.
