Spare Notes

I Levelled Up

I just got a domain name to add to the long list of "must have" domain names. Waiting for that to do it's thing, then this feels slightly more legit (to me). Even if I had no real need for it.

I also paid for a years subscription. Would have loved to have got the lifetime deal (I'm all about those) but the budget couldn't stretch to that. I had to do some creative accounting to get the years worth.

Reasons for getting the subscription:

Those are the main points for me.

I'm not sure if I have the energy to create any more blogs, but I guess it's nice to have the ability to make up to 10. I wonder how many people are managing multiples.

I love the simplicity of it all. I have to balance that with the tweaks design stuff. I could easily get lost in the weeds of trying to make everything nicer, better or how I want. At that point I might as well stick with my normal Wordpress website and blog.

This IS different. This is for writing. This is for getting the words out onto a screen with maybe the chance of someone reading it.

For me at least that is a key point of difference.

I write for myself and have a daily diary type thing, it's for tracking what I've done over a day. It goes back about 7 years now. It's proved invaluable when I need to find out when we did something or purchased something expensive. My family know about it and will ask me to reference it from time to time.

This place here is taking me back to the early 2000's. Where writing was writing, social media didn't exist and people were excited to be online.
