@colinwalker I recommend reading about Evergreen notes on Andy Matuschak's site or about Digital gardening.
It looks like a new movement to get some permanence into personal web publishing.
@muhh Thanks for those. Evergreen notes certainly look interesting.
@colinwalker That’s very interesting, as is the linked piece, and gives me some thoughts as to ways I might use my site. But this assertion:
We have to be realistic and accept that people don't follow links anymore.
seems a little sweeping. After all, if I hadn't followed the link to your post from Micro.blog, and from there to Brandon's post, I wouldn’t be here typing this reply now.
I do understand that what you're probably getting at is the apparent habit some people have of sharing a link without even reading it. But lots of us still follow lots of links.
@devilgate Agreed, it is an over-generalisation but it is common that many won't - not only not reading stuff before sharing but also not following links and references in things they do read.
