In the latest post in my history of blogging and RSS series, I look at the emergence of the blogosphere in 2002 — a thriving ecosystem of colourful personal sites that interconnected to each other via RSS, trackback and blogrolls. 2002 also saw the debut of RSS 2.0, Technorati and Google News. https://cybercultural.com/p/blogs-rss-2002/ #InternetHistory #Blogging
I'm loving that people are replying to my lack of tea or ice cream filled weirdo questions via their blogs! https://raintreeruckus.com/how-about-a-blog-post/ #Blog #Blogging #Interview
Could all of you spam my website on Linkedin? I want to make people that wear suits and ties uncomfortable. https://sightlessscribbles.com/the-colonization-of-confidence/ #Blog #Blogging #IndieWeb #LinkedIn
I’m kinda fascinated by Ghost (the blogging platform) and its ability to sync with Mastodon. Has anyone tried it for this purpose? Do you like how it works?
I really like my current set up, not wishing to change right now. I’m just gathering data.
Just a quick Side Note:
I will scale down my Activities on Mastodon from now on, will focus my Attention and Time elsewhere in the digital Realm.
There will be still Posts and Interactions be published, like from my Blog automatically distributed into the Fediverse.
Micro-Blogging on Mastodon isn't what i imagined it to be or what i need in this Form, after trying it out for a while. 🤔
So long... 😉

#Blogging is the art of watching that post you wrote in like two hours about washing your shark plush last year overshadowing everything else you will ever write.

I am downright delighted to announce that my latest book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, has a brand new look. I really love it, and I hope you do too.
Here’s a look at what’s changed and—maybe more importantly—what’s stayed the same:

I wrote about how social media habits make it hard to write a good opening and how a BBC4 radio program helped me overcome the urge to waffle.

Hi. I'm terrified.
I've been trying to make my own space on the web for years. And I've been stuck. Badly.
But today is my birthday. And I refuse to let another year pass without putting something—anything—out there.
So here it is in all its messy glory. My first post on my barely-there #website: https://fromemily.com/hi-im-terrified/
It's not great. But it's okay...enough.
And I hope it means something to someone.

PSA for people with #Wordpress blogs: do you know that you can turn off comments on old posts?
In the last few months I have noticed a significant uptick in spammy comments on my Wordpress blogs (I have 4).
Well there is a way to remedy all that: you can simply turn off comments on old blog posts by going to:
Settings -> Discussion -> and checking "Automatically close comments on old posts"
(You can even determine the "oldness" of posts, for example, older than 7 days, 14 days... anything you'd like)
Enabling this made all the difference for me. I could not recommend it more.
End of my PSA 🤗
Have a great day everyone!
