Asking my dear network of friends: I’d like to be able to put a widget of Google analytics on my iPad home screen. Do you know of any iOS apps that can do this? I’ll pay for it if the design is up to my taste. Something along the line of this one (which is no longer being maintained). Thanks. 🙏🏻 apps.apple.com/ca/app/ga…
Because I’m a freak of visitors statistics in general, I just enabled Google Analytics for this micro.blog. Just another way to see if I get any attention (I’m not attention freak though!). 😊
Why, oh why? If I was blogging for fame, I would close all this shit right away! So, why am I doing all this? That’s the question that’s lingering in my head this morning. I guess this is a typital thing to ask myself, dear blogger. #blogger #bloggerlife #blogging

For those wonder about using Medium as a publishing platform. Here is a summary for my last four publications. See the difference when a story gets approved? The last three stories were not approved for publication behind their paywall. Not cool. It is a hit or miss and so you don’t want to build too much confidence in the platform to help build any form of sustainable revenue, even small.
Here is something that I notice quite often while browsing the web: the lack of a publish date on articles, blog posts, etc. While living in the age of fast content consumption, where content relevance is depleting fast, it seems important, more than ever, to put a publishing date. I know we can sometimes infer the date from the URL but to me it isn’t the right way to do it.
A content creators, If we suspect content we publish will age well, let’s put a publishing date on it! If we do think this is ephemeral stuff, a publishing date helps put some context for the content. Makes sense?
Remember Flipboard? Who is using this app / service these days? Is it a ghost town?
I’m putting the last efforts on something special that I’ll be sharing really soon. I’m kind of proud of the end results. So, if you are a blogger or want to start a new blog, you should pay attention to this space. 👨🏻💻☝🏻#blogger #blogging #writers.
My goal as a blogger is to get people read my stuff. RSS feeds are a way to help users access my content. Trying to be protective is counterproductive for me. The idea is to remove friction to the users. If they want to read via Reeder for example, why not! On that note, If a website doesn’t provide an RSS feed, which is sad, I’m let interested to stay in touch. Just sayin. Is RSS Just Giving Your Site Away for Free?
Question to people here on Micro.blog: what are the choices of themes? Are the ones (nine or so) the only one available? Asking for a friend of mine. 😊
