what is the bog?
here's the pitch for this thing: any updates or random thoughts go on this page under the date they were made. no static site-generating stuff or anything. if you want the news, just look and see if the newest date is newer than the old one. I expect to use my personal brand of capitalization here, but I might forego the quirk and just write like a real person. you knever know.
aside from all the other reasons to want a personal website, I'm also doing this because I think it helps organize my stuff better than tumblr. mostly because reblogs are given as much on the blog as any other post, which means that personal posts and creative works can sort of get drowned out if you're doing the right thing and reblogging every post you want others to see.
of course, tags exist, but they're unreliable, plus it just makes more sense to me to seperate big articles, drawings, and writings from textposts and status updates.
those seperate pages I speak of will likely have not much more uniform navigation than a link back to the homepage. I used to stress about having a navigation menu and banner and copyright footer on every page and having them be exactly the same like [redacted], but it was somewhat liberating to realize that my web design does not have to be consistent whatsoever. beautiful, even, to have all your previous pages maintain their style through the years.
