A Blogger’s Progress

BLOGS VS. WEB SITES

Posted in Uncategorized by thenaturalist on June 4, 2009

I’ve decided (I think) that I want to convert all my Web sites to blogs and retire the Web sites — or maybe just use their addresses to forward people to my blogs. I wonder how much work that might be? I guess the issue is that as long as my Web sites are Web sites, I’ll have to keep renewing the domain names and Web hosts. That means when I die they will eventually cease to exist. If I manage to get all the contents posted to my blogs, the contents will remain available as long at the blogosphere exists, which is forever enough for me. So now I’ve got to think through what I want to do and in what order. Plus I’ll have to work with my Web sweetheart to get my graphics transferred, and I’ll have to figure out how to link my book reviews to Amazon from my Naturalist’s Bookstore blog. Lots of work…. BUT the advantage is the end products would be permanent, infinitely tweakable by me, and all interconnected any way I want them to be.
