Today finds me pondering (once again) the way that my blogging “life” is currently divided and partitioned off.
\nOnce upon a time, the split was pretty clear: gaming-related stuff went here, and anything that I wanted to write about that wasn’t that went onto Average-Bear. This was done for a number of reasons, but none of them were really for compartmentalization as much as organization. The problem is basically that the organization of my gaming posts would suffer dramatically<\/em> if they all had to be lumped under a single heading of “Gaming” on a blog that was supposed to handle everything — the bloat from that one category would be hard to manage and the heading itself would be largely meaningless in terms of actually organizing anything — I’ve over a dozen post categories on this gaming blog, and porting all that into another blog would, at best, make that combined blog a kind of “gaming, with a few tangents” blog that I’m not interested in doing.
\nBut the problem is that, with my new ‘main’ blog, there are things that I *don’t* want to blog about there, which aren’t gaming-related either, and thus have nowhere to go.
\nWhich brings me back to just having one big journal for everything, and the problems be damned…
\nWhich brings me back to actually contemplating the problems and deciding that I can’t just ignore them.
\nAnd nothing changes.
\nNot entirely sure what to do with that. Not sure there’s much I actually can<\/em> do about it.
\nBut I think it’s telling that I’m writing about all this on my gaming blog… a blog that actually nets quite a bit more traffic now than my ‘neutered’ main<\/strong> blog. What it tells me is that I’m doing something wrong.
\nI’m just not sure what.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
