Don’t mind me

I’m just having a bit of fun here.

Squarespace is a fairly brilliant web hosting platform, but blogging to it isn’t the easiest conceivable procedure. Not as easy as posting stuff to Tumblr is, say–which is what I was playing with yesterday. Today I’ve moved on to Posterous. Advantage: really, really, really easy to blog anything and everything. Disadvantage: the cool image gallery functionality doesn’t get auto-posted over here to Squarespace; everything’s a lot prettier if you look at the Posterous site itself. But no way am I gonna point my domain name over there. In the final equation, Squarespace is just more powerful and flexible. I’ll stay here for the time being, thank you very much. But I’ll probably do most of my posting through Posterous, and just put up with the mildly obtrusive footer text, etc.

I was toying with the idea of setting up two blogs: one for more carefully thought-out essay-type entries, and one for the quick pictures and links and so forth that I like to imagine people are interested in. And maybe it’ll come to that if I ever find myself writing more than I currently do. For now, I’ll just post everything together, and leave it to you to try to make sense of it.
