Hello LJ

I've been trying to get my head together lately.

I'm like super ADHD (so much so I wrote AHDH first). I have a million things whirling around in my head constantly and it often becomes visually obvious on the web. Case in point I have like 50 blogs.

Thank god I've always basically held LJ as my personal blog, a home away from the prying eyes of the ( Read more... )

I wrote something about this here (Not sure if you saw it or not).

Dude, to be really honest, I don't think it helps having so many projects... especially having so many things scattered across the internet. I mean, I'm you're number one fanboy and I don't even know about HALF of these blogs. lol. Who the hell is reading these?!

I confess I do have blogs different places... often just to stop anyone from using the usernames johnofjordan or johnlacey. lol. But I don't really use them as anything more than referrers. Its all well and good to have an individual site for specific projects... but to have so many random "Sam Proof," "Proofalist" type vlogs. It's confusing. Pick one or two, COMMIT TO THOSE, and set up a "This site has moved" entry on the others.

For starters yea you're right, and I'm aware of the sheer number of things I work on at any given time. And the thing is, I've brought that number down alot. There was a time where I'd stay up through the night moving from project to project.

As for the blogs, I've done that. I've got LJ for my straight out personal things and Blogger for everything else that is samproof. I'll just ping Headlines to those other blogs and link to the blogger one from now on.

Of course I'll still have other blogs:
LobsterVaws
Path to Publication blog
15x
dash30dash
and whatever else I can't think of right now...

but those are compartmentalized in to their specific functions, so they make sense to me in what I'm doing with them.

My biggest problem before was I had a vague notion of using the various Samproof blogs for different things, and then I lost it and got jumbled in site features.

I think I'm stable now :D
