What kinds of web footprints are you leaving? Or does it matter since they just blow away? Where do you choose to do your walking? I am not talking about your data trails, am talking about the trails you make as a contribution for others. I know my answers, which are just mine, and are […]
Not that I am setting any goals here but can I keep pace? Just writing this creates the potential of expectations. But this is my gig space alone. And once more, a small nugget of example what hoisting content on your own platform, your own domain, creates unexpected potential for the wonderfully unexpected. (And curses […]
If you stay at this old habit of writing in your own space (rather then handing it off to whacky billionaires?) a side benefit is being able to tap into your own past experiences. It’s much more than nostalgia, especially as my human memory banks tend to get leaky over time. Or maybe it’s just […]
In all the frenzied exodus from the deck of the Musk Boat, mass acts of tweet deletion, self announcements in the fediverse, I wonder about how far we’ve come from Mike Caulfield’s classic (to me) pondering of the Garden and the Stream. Pretty much the last few years the garden has been left dusty for […]
Hey CogDogBlog, you seem to be devoid of not only a hello world, but not too many posts at all recently. So never going out of style (here) is the genre of Blogging about Not Blogging closely followed up by Blogging about Blogging (2007 version! 2010 version!) (and a cover song “Where Have All the […]
Once again in the “spent too much time creating a clever title” department, I am here not to delve into Foucault analysis (and I had to look that one up). I can take the opening Wikipedia line on the article as “Discourse is a generalization of the notion of a conversation to any form of […]
Hello WordPress editor, has it really been 24 days since cracking you open here at el cogdogblog dot com? Indeed yes. With the world ongoing plodding into now a regular incertitude I have found myself stuck on several fronts, the daily photo habot has sputtered into a bi-weekly catch-up. So what else is there to […]
Am I off my blog game or what? Can I blame Musk? Nahhh. D’Arcy Norman is on his game, and he observed how old his blog is– 20 years! That was my nudge to check my own blog birth stamp, and find, as often in my career I copied Mr Norman (soon to be Dr?). […]
I’m putting my stake in the ground to be part of the Write 6×6 extravaganza, but starting here a number 0 (also doing so to establish my tag). Writing 6 blog posts in 6 weeks should not be a challenge, it’s more about joining a group of colleagues doing the writing challenge together. As many […]
Shouldn’t the idea of publishing on the web mean generating something that can “echo all around the world”? Once again, my experience shows that if you publish something on an employer’s web site, or a company’s web site, or even in something that just takes away the work of managing web sites, the chances of […]
