I've been happy following along with Dave Rogers' recent dip into Daybook/Daylog/Interstitial Journal -ing using Tinderbox. I've kept a Daybook in Tinderbox (with a few Org-mode diversions) since 2008. One thing I've watched, but avoided, is how hard he's working to automate the process. Tinkering like that is fun, so I totally get it, but have been trying to do the opposite lately. I've been gutting any complicated workflows and avoiding the urge to "just tweak this one thing." I've failed at times, but at some point I've gotta just use the thing, right?

I can't seem to stop posting to my blot.im blog over on baty.blog. This is probably because I'm usually already in Emacs so a quick M-x jab/blot-new-post means I'm off and running.

Why it's so much different than visiting the Kirby panel in my browser and pushing the "+" button is a mystery. Both methods are easy. Both render to nice-looking, simple websites. Both have dependencies (Blot.im vs Kirby CMS). Honestly, I think it might be the content format in Kirby that nags me.

Anyway, sorry for continuing to spread myself so thin. There's always /everything.rss.

I've posted a few times over on baty.blog because...I guess I get bored. I'm now moving some of those posts over here to baty.net. I need to stick with my Reduce & Simplify plan and that means I should only have one blog. If I do that, it has to be here at baty.net and that means it has to be Kirby. At least that's what the plan was, so I'm going back to the plan, even though it makes me twitchy. Sorry for the duplicate RSS items.
