A Few Changes to my Blog
This post is over 15 years old and may contain information that is incorrect, outdated, or no longer relevant.
My views and opinions can change, and those that are expressed in this post may not necessarily reflect the ones I hold today.
I’ve been getting some complaints lately about how people aren’t satisfied with my blog. They claim that my blog used to be interesting and would serve as an insight to my (supposedly) interesting life, but now it’s become boring. The culprit here appears to be my attempt at blogging everyday in 2011 for WordPress’ Post a Day, and using their prompts to fill up some days of blogging.I noticed that the prompts were becoming slightly unintriguing and weren’t prompting me to be as textually exciting as I would normally be when I write my own blog posts with photos that I take during my day.However, I already participated in Post a Day for all of January and February, and I don’t want to stop now. I want to find out if I’m able to do this for the rest of the year like I was originally anticipating.As a result, I decided that I’m going to continue blogging daily, but make some changes as requested. Instead of posting all my blog entries the same, I’m going to color-code the dates on the calendar index now.The red entries (like some of the earlier blog posts from Five Minutes in My Head) are the ones that will be particularly worth reading. The regular gray entries will be normal entries that I post normally on a regular basis. The light gray entries will be days when I simply answer a Daily Post prompt and don’t add anything else into the post.By using this color-coding system, you’ll be able to know which blog posts will be considered “boring” and which ones are “interesting.” The Daily Shoot Assignment of the Day#DS471: Find a repeating pattern today and make a photograph of it.Repeating Pattern The Daily Post at WordPress.comTopic #50: What would you do with a million dollars, tax free?Unlike most of you humans out there, I’m not much of a materialistic person, so no, I would not go on a massive shopping spree buying everything that I can get my hands on.Being more of a minimalistic person, I would probably spend the money on things that I necessarily have to spend on (either now or in the future).
