I’m always negotiating the relationship between micro.blog and my big blog, but I’m getting closer to a system in which micro.blog is a box of delights and the big blog is a Memex. Gonna try to stick with that model.
@ayjay I think I’ve been drifting toward that same distinction. This is a helpful model, thanks for sharing.
@ayjay I’ve long presumed you were digitally commonplacing by means of your websites, so thanks for laying out some of your specific current thoughts on the process.
@Annie I’ve been collecting examples of bloggers who are using their personal websites as commonplaces, zettelkasten, and “thought spaces” at indieweb.org/commonpla… If you’re interested, you’ll also find examples and details to explore in my own digital commonplace. “Thought spaces” is an interesting entry point.
@Annie @ayjay Doctorow goes through more of his process in which he’s saving both his “box of delights” & refashioning of them into longer pieces in “20 years a blogger”. In his case it’s (now) all done on Pluralistic and syndicated out from there, in much the same way @dave has done for years.
@chrisaldrich Thanks, Chris. I’m doing some slow deliberate reconfiguring and these will be helpful to look through.
