  • Bring back personal blogging by Monique Judge (The Verge)

    As social media changes, Twitter slowly falls, and the landscape seems bleak, let’s take a moment and consider blogging. The personal blog built the internet, and maybe it can help fix it.

    A (long and slow) project I intend to undertake in 2023 is to work on my website and to IndieWeb-ify it in an effort to move away from Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

  • Heading back to Barcelona having spent a couple of days in a great spa resort. Feeling relaxed and refreshed ahead of the new year.

  • I’ve received an early Christmas present. My Drobo 5D seems to have died. Thankfully everything is backed up, but now considering alternative storage solutions. I’ll likely go for a NAS rather than DAS.

    I’ve spent most of Día de los Reyes Magos assembling a new desk and configuring my new workspace to find my Drobo unit has a vibration that’s now amplified to a low hum.

    The vibration is barely noticeable now and the hum is easily drowned out by typing and music. Looks like the Desk Cable Management Guide has advice for how to tidy up the rat’s nest I’ve made.

  • Installed Yarns microsub server and coupled with Indigenous as a reader/microsub client I can now respond to blog posts in a more social/IndieWeb kinda way.

  • Looking into PressForward as a replacement for Feedly based off Chris Aldrich’s write-up of the WordPress plugin. Being able to read and respond to blog posts in the same app is appealing and might even help me keep on top of my ‘Read Later’ list.

  • My Last.fm last.year listening report has confirmed what I’ve long suspected. Through our shared smart speaker @tesshumphrys has infiltrated my listening habits with @BlossomsBand being my most played artist of 2020.
