Seeing people go is always sad. Micro.blog for me is helping me strike a balance between lightweight blogging and more heavy duty stuff on my main blog with WordPress. Unmooring from Micro.blog – Alan Ralph

Never being satisfied with the look of something. I just switched to a new visual theme on my Micro.blog. I think it’s better now. Your thoughts?

Day #4 of my Ghost experiment
Ghost.org has been under attack in the last few days, prompting them to force a password reset. It leaves a sour taste. I'm currently writing down my thoughts and findings. Expect a blog post in the coming days. Spoiler alert: it's not good. Continue reading →

This little utility looks great. Simple design. Very focused use case: bookmarking websites. But for me, Notion is filling this need. Abyss Saves URLs for Later from iPhone, iPad and Mac • Beautiful Pixels

Day #3 of my Ghost experiment. I already know that I won't go ahead with this. The lack of iOS native app is a deal breaker. No free tier. Simple to setup but Micro.blog is too. I applaud the open source nature of Ghost though. But I think it is not for me.

My Ghost experiment is to try to find a better solution to replace this. So far, I don't see the plus value of switching, even if Ghost general experience is positive.

Day #2 of my Ghost experiment. Where is the Media library? How can I re-use a previously uploaded picture in a new blog post? Another thought: the quality of the service's visual themes library contributes to its attractiveness. I found a very simple yet beautiful theme. 😎

Each time I see an update to the Tumblr.app poping up in the App Store, I wonder if this is the update many were waiting for since the acquisition of Tumblr by Automattic… #tumblr #automattic #wordpress

Day #1 of my Ghost experiment. Simple CMS. Well designed. A bit desoriented at first, coming from WordPress. No iOS / iPadOS app. Not good. macOS app not really native. Relies on Zapier for basic cross-posting stuff.

Contemplating Ghost as an alternative to what I’m currently using and … this critical vulnerability impacting all of their services is not very a good first contact.

Let's try this again!
Well, cross-posting from MB to WP with IFTTT is a no go. Now, testing a much cleaner solution, a WP plugin which allow a better control over what is imported and how it is inserted into WP. I’m currently testing the whole process as I write this. Posts are inserted in Draft mode so I can release them as I wish. If it works as expected, I’ll be able to keep my main blog in sync with very specific content that I put here with minimal efforts. Continue reading →

Well, cross-posting from Micro.blog to WordPress via IFTTT doesn’t work. IFTTT is having issues creating the post as draft. I don’t know why. On top of that, I’m afraid of creating a loop as my posts on WordPress are automatically cross-posted to Micro.blog. 😅

Starting a small experiment
Up until now, I didn’t want to have my posts on **Micro.blog** to show up on my main blog on **WordPress**. But since I’m posting ten times more here than on my main blog, I have a feeling my readers are missing a lot. So, starting today, I’s starting a small experiment. Some of my posts here will be cross-posted to my main blog with the help of IFTTT. I’ll see where this goes. Continue reading →

One quick question: is it possible to cross-post from Micro.blog to my WordPress blog?
[Update: I think I have to use IFTTT, something that I already use a lot. ]

Still far from fully recovered from Google's search algorithm changes of last November
Last day of April. Time to look back at this month's stats. It was a great month for my main blog visitors but still far away of full recovery of the big Google search crash of last November. I wonder if I will every recover from it, despite all my efforts to write fewer but longer and higher quality posts. On a brighter side, I’m faring much much better on Medium. Continue reading →
