Resurfacing this old blogchain.
I was reading it over earlier for the first time in years, which helpfully reminded me that IFTTT doesn’t connect well to this install due to being much more secure and I shouldn’t pay for IFTTT Pro to try and automate some nagging stuff.
As per part 7 of this chain, I had a programming guide for much of this year, but time and energy led me to let go of it – I wasn’t getting to much of the material I wanted to write in this space. And some fucked-up part of my back-brain always resists regimen and structure.
I found myself writing about the Chronofile on the newsletter that goes out on Sunday, in tandem with the current state of livestreaming – some people are livestreaming eight hours a day seven days a week. In comparison, elderblogs (thanks again for that one, Venkat) barely manage four posts a day and usually a hell of a lot less. Which is fine. Not everyone wants to read or write a chronofile – weeknotes are enough for most people.
Are there new tricks to be pulled with apparently deprecated tools? I dunno. I have a bunch of stuff I want to try, when I get the spare time and energy. In certain spaces, there’s talk again of what WordPress can do. And people are still building – Cozy Mode made me laugh.
So I’m back to thinking out loud to myself about all this some more.
