Oh the simplicity!
I’m very much a person that likes minamilist things, I don’t like complexity at all and often find myself at work trying to find a solution to an issue that will reduce complexity in the application so I am currently loving Tumblr as opposed to Wordpress.
To me Wordpress has just become too bloated and complex, partly because too many people these days look to blogging to make money so a lot of features have been introduced to assist with this mainly through search engine optimization. However isn’t the heart of blogging to share your thoughts with those you know?
I even find myself at times getting all excited to have a number 1 result for a keyword on Google, but really who cares? Why does that matter so much to everyone?Are you really monetizing sufficiently for it to matter? Now of course for the Engadgets and Gizmodo’s of the world it matters but to me they aren’t even blogs but just news sites.
So for now I am forgetting about SEO for my personal blog and just focusing on sharing my thoughts with those that know me and hey if new people stumble across this site through search engines then all the better but I’m not even going to install tracking on this blog (or is tumble the correct term?).
I’m looking forward to just getting into plain old blogging again and keeping y’all up to date with what’s happening with me so stay tuned and if RSS is your thing then subscribe away!
