Not forgotten
T-Duck suggested getting my blog to update over here via an RSS feed. I have not yet figured out how to get LJ to do that. I certainly can get LJ to feed over to the blog, but that's the wrong direction. As usual, I'm finding LJ's documentation to be scattered and disorganized.
I used to, somewhere, have a client that posted to multiple blogs. Did I just toss the darn thing? That is something I am considering. There is also a way, I think, to feed comments from LJ over to Unfettered Blather, but again I don't know if the reverse is true. I wouldn't mind establishing some sort of synergy.
I do have one major reservation, and it occurs due to reading my friends list again. Let's just be real honest here. LJ is largely a personal experience. Me? Well, I've not grown to fond of either complaining about life nor trumpeting how good it is. I might have an off-handed comment about how things are going, but I find it terribly droll just to talk about me. In fact, I've pretty well dropped it. Unfettered Blather is largely impersonal, except for presenting the world from my point of view. It's me looking outward, not me looking in. LJ is largely the reverse of that. That is an observation, not a criticism.
Anyway, the REAL lack of progress is simply being busy with this or that. I'm sure everyone, you know, gets what I mean. Sure I'm holed up in a hotel after work and being an old married guy I don't venture out much. Still, it's amazing how little free time I have. Besides, Sunday evenings and Friday mornings are completely consumed by trips to the airport and flights back and forth from work to home. I'm losing a good 10 to 12 hours a week just to travel.
