Reassembling the Blogpsphere

By | October 8, 2018

This has been festering in the back of my brain for the past few days.

I stopped blogging, really, about the time we got pregnant with our second child. I don’t know if it was that or Google Reader being discontinued, but both certainly had an effect. Maybe it was the new position at my day job, but whatever happened I just didn’t seem to have the time to sit down for an hour and hammer something out.

The podcast scratched that itch for a while, but life got in the way of that, too, eventually. Podcasts are a lot of work, even if you are just the co-host with no production or editing to do.

I never really “got” Twitter and it didn’t shock me in the least when they started banned wrong think. I quit Facebook ~10 years ago but recently started a new account just to comment in some groups and scratch that itch again. But Facebook isn’t exactly neutral ground these days, and the two political-ish groups I’m in… Well they aren’t mine so I feel like I am borrowing the audience.

My Instagram page is pretty exclusively Cherokee XJ related and I’m not going to pull a Taylor Swift and start posting political stuff on a nonpartisan business page.

So maybe I’ll start posting more here. More SayUncle than Smallest Minority.

Maybe.

    Well, I’ve read you a long time. And a little advice – when i looked for a replacement for google reader, i’ve tried a bunch of apps and services. And stopped with netvibes. It’s not perfect – for example it couldn’t attach gunfeed blog. But it still pretty good. Hope it helps.
