BLOGGING IN 2025

 A year ago when I stopped posting on my old self hosted WordPress www.frot.co.nz blog, I called my last post "THE END OF AN ERA" and after eight years of posting on that blog it certainly felt like it.

My Sift Blogger blog this year has been a shorter term experiment. I started out the year by saying I would post whatever and whenever, but soon became totally anal and ended up doing a blog post of some sort every day for the entire year. 


 That really was a bit excessive for a blog that only got about 100 hits a day, especially when I suspect most of those hits are bots of some sort anyway.

For 2025 I was considering quitting doing blog posts altogether, and to only post new pages from time to time. But I must admit to being a bit addicted to posting something every day, even if it's a bit crap. 

So I've set up a new Blogger blog for 2025 and am going to pretty much carry on just the same. Possibly one day I might set up another self hosted website with a bigger menu and more pages, but in the shorter term I'll just keep things simple and continue using Blogger because it's quick and easy.
