blog future
What is my blog and what should it be? Currently there are blogs that I post to- mine, my tech one and my warcraft one. That's three you say, well the fourth one is my wedding on and that'll likely stay a separate site.
In fact all four are part of the same thing, an expression of my thoughts, my interests or just plain things that interest me. I'm thinking of merging 3 of the blogs and then using categories to manage the different content.
The other interesting thing for me is the role of persistent versioned documents in the site or blog. A blog i read has been coined a bliki - cross of blog and wiki which tries to express the temporal journal updates and the fact some of the documents are more permanent.
given that i'm quite lazy i'm now looking for software that will enable me to manage my words, journal entries and docs in a sensible and lazy-person friendly way. Part of this will be influenced by my use of dreamhost as a hosting solution.
Key pieces of infrastructure i'm looking at are wordpress blog, mediawiki and joomla content management system. Perhaps a mix is appropriate. I'll investigate as far as my laziness will let me.
