The Second Post
This is my second post. It’s basically only a test to try to make this wonky navigation work the right way. As with most everything I do, it’s probably more trouble than it’s worth.

Trying to get everything to cooperate. I’ve switched over to Netlify and I’m thinking about moving off of Jekyll. We’ll see if I have the energy for that.

A couple of days ago I enabled the little badge on Instapaper to show my unread count. My kids laughed at me when they noticed it was 358. I’m not sure they’d still be laughing when they saw my newsfeed unread count or my Tumblr unread count or my Pinboard unread count. Plus I’m sure the amount of time I spend reading Twitter everyday could be considered problematic.
I don’t even want to think how many hours (probably days) it’d take for me to read all those articles. I’ve read about 20 over the past couple of days. One of them, a profile of Natalie Jermanjinko was great. A couple of others were interesting and another group would have been interesting if I had read them two years ago. Right around half were not interesting at all.
I could try to get through all those articles and links and bookmarks but to what end I don’t know. I haven’t discussed any of the articles - good or bad - with anyone this week. I haven’t posted links on social media. They haven’t inspired blog posts or further research. I’ve just marked them off a list.
Of course, reading is not bad. Obsessively collecting potential reading material is. I don’t want my kids laughing at me anymore (at least not for this) so I’m going to make a switch. It’s time for me to start doing. I want to learn Processing and p5.js, I want to code some tiny node.js apps, I want to write poetry. Obviously I’m going to keep reading but from now on I’m going to focus on reading the things that will show me how to do other things.
My day will be ruled by unread counts no more!

Here’s my list – in order as always because if it’s not in order it’s just a collection. I’ve linked what I could to SoundCloud. Let me know if you want to hear something and can’t find it or have Spotify blocked in your office like I do, I’d be happy to share.

That’s right, after years of silence I’m blogging again. Not sure what I’m going to be writing about but I’m sure you’ll find it interesting and want to share it with all your virtual friends.
Peace.
