Ok. So I just sorta had a revelation… I realized that I should run multiple blogs on different subjects, rather than one blog that spastically tries to cover all my bases without becoming so unfocused that it loses its purpose… or whatever. I guess it would be the ideal amalgam of random crap for ME, but it’s prolly easier for others if they can just check the different blogs for differing coherent lines of thought/musing/investigation. Plus it’ll probably foster better blogging on my part. Now to put one more thing on my todo list… Look at multiple blogs in a wordpress environment or something.
ALSO! I’m still looking for a simple way to enable auto-linking of URL’s in blog posts. ie. http://www.google.com automatically becomes http://www.google.com. I’ve been completely dumbfounded at how difficult it is to find ANYTHING helpful on this around the web. My next step was either to a) post on some forum (WHICH forum?) b) Look at some of the php for the more complex linking plugins and hack something together that works (and release it as a plugin? ooooh…)
So yeah…. back to “homework”
p.s. Some cool geography/GIS/cartography blogs:
An old favorite of mine: Cartography: The Canadian Cartographic Association Weblog
Some new ones:
The Map Room: Blogs. Also, The Map Room itself is a blog about maps (duh).
Spatially Adjusted
The Center for Geographic Analysis’ list of GIS blogs
