A few days ago I stumbled upon the term micro-blogging and got interested what such a thing might be. As it turned out it’s a concept of blogging that takes less time and so seems very attractive to me. My dilemma is that I feel my homepage needs a blog to be complete, but I don’t really want to spend hours writing something no one might read.
Apparently, there is something going on called tumblelogging that concentrates on publishing certain types of media (including text) with little or no comment. Rather quick, I came to like this concept and now I’m writing a post that’s conceptually too long for my new tumblelog.

Additonally to the tumblelogging stuff, I like to keep a record what I’m working on. You can find a list of my current projects going to the Projects (what else?) page of my site. I’ll post here when making progress or when I stumble upon interesting things.

Note that I’m using the full-blown blogging software Wordpress instead of some specialized tumblelogging software. I evaluated such software (mainly Chyrp), but there simply were too few plugins. Wordpress is easily adjusted to the task by adding plugins and in the end it comes down to what content you create anyway.

So in short this blog will be made of two ingredients: development log + tumblelog.

I’ve also updated the site in general, but only the new navigation image (at the top) really is a change that is visible at first.

Have fun!
