Wait, "Blog"?

prog• If I have been using LJ more, it's largely because I've finally gotten around to subscribing to various LJ-friends' (and, increasingly, Dreamwidth-friends') RSS feeds, using the proper kung-fu that allows the reading of locked posts therein. It's a small hassle to treat every "friend" as a separate blog, but since I've gotten used to curating a long list of incoming feeds over the last couple of years, it's doable. (I never got any full-friends-page subscription magic to work in a way that made me happy.)
• That said, I'm likely to try again to launch a new personal blog on www.jmac.org, sometime in 2011. I last tried it three years ago and didn't get anywhere, but I have new reasons now to try again, and new directions to take it. The top of my personal-project stack, which has been waiting patiently for me to finally finish Warbler, is the top-to-bottom remodeling of www.jmac.org. I've talked a good talk on this before, but it's been many years since I've done anything other than applying new CSS or rewording the front page a little. It's still too much the website of who I was in 1999. Needs less "I am jmac, and I seek the holy grail" and more "I am jmac, and I sit resplendent in my glory." You know how it is.
