Posts have been kind of slow here of late, for a variety of reasons. A busy private and work life has been a big part. But another is the Google Reader “Share This” capability, which in turn feeds the “Unblogged Bits” sidebar here. A lot of stuff that’s kind of interesting, but that I don’t have any explicit comment on, ends up over there.
I might start changing that a bit. It’s been kind of a lazy crutch, and not necessarily one that all users see (esp. folks who come here through RSS readers who aren’t Friends in Google (who see those items, in turn, as Shared items). So if something is more than just passingly interesting, I’ll try to make an actual blog post about it.
That’s the plan, anyway.
Jon (Webs05) has been trying to get me to use the “share this” thingie but I just don’t get it like he does. Would rather pick out something that really interests me and write something. Seems too easy to just click and forget.
There’s trivial stuff that it makes sense with. But my sense is it’s too ephemeral to really be of lasting value.
