Site Tweaks

I’ve had some extra free time lately, so I decided to make some long needed tweaks to the site; all of which were related to understanding WordPress and PHP more. Making those tweaks were fun because it helped me understand the WordPress environment a little better. Some of the smaller details of the site look better and more natural. I’ll continue making tweaks, like maybe adding a sidebar. I intentionally left out the sidebar, but I’m starting to think it would be a good idea, so I can make category and/or tag refinement possible. I would also like to make subscribing to categories and tags easier and more apparent.

When I come back like Jordan, wearin the 4-5

Sorry, I couldn’t help the Jay-Z reference, haha.

I haven’t updated this blog in a long time @_@ I think I’m going to start making posts again. Instead of treating this as just a blog, I think I’ll start using it more like Tumblr. I like writing long posts, but sometimes I get lazy and end up never writing up some of my ideas. I feel like if I treat it more like Tumblr, I can get more content on here and hopefully that will be content that people will like to read or see. You may ask why I just don’t use Tumblr instead of WordPress. It’s because I like how everything can be easily imported and exported in WordPress if I decide to host this blog myself. I’m not sure if Tumblr can do that, but there really is no reason to find out if WordPress does it well enough. Using WordPress in this fashion will also allow me to more easily share small updates without being confined to 140 characters. Twitter is great, but sometimes you just need more characters. At the same time, you don’t really want to write out some massive post, so using WordPress in this fashion really works out perfectly.

Hope you enjoy the posts to come. One of my worries was to be careful on the array of topics I posted about so I wouldn’t alienate any readers I happened to gain, but I’m going to get rid of that mentality and write freely about anything that interests me. If you don’t like certain topics I post about, feel free to look at (or subscribe to) my blog on a tag or category basis. That way you can just read the stuff you like 🙂
