Blog

I’ve made a few decisions regarding my participation in the blogosphere.

I am closing BloggingOutfitter.com. As I develop it more, I see it nothing more than “blogging about blogging.” There are others that pull that off much better than I do, and I was always struggling with saying things that haven’t been said a hundred times over.

I am consolidating my Web sites to one - JosephCizek.info. After a lot of thinking and planning, I have come to see how my writing interests can be expressed in one area, rather than stressing about maintaining several.

I am going to focus less on Web publishing, and more on Web-participating. Instead of trying to create and own a new publication or social network, I’m going to explore the ones out there and establish myself as a loyal reader.

I very much want to create Web sites, and still will - for-hire and for myself. But, I’ve found that I’ve been too focused on the technical and theories behind blogs and social networks, and not on what makes them really work - interacting and sharing knowledge with people. Just like good writers read avidly, a Web Producer needs to be an active Web user - and I’ve been behind-the-scenes too much.
