My Plan: Mommyblogging, Local Blogging, Tech Blogging, Thought Blogging

Here’s my plan for my various online activities:

  • The Everyday Cafe will be expanded beyond its focus on cooking to include all aspects of family life. I miss momblogging but don’t want to create a new blog for it and don’t want to do it here, since this site has typically been more professionally oriented.
  • I am starting a local blog and community site aimed at Denver families. It will, I hope, provide a place where offline relationships can be enriched by online interaction. Initially it will just be a blog, but I am building it on Drupal so I can add in community features like discussion forums and school profiles. The site is under construction, so I won’t point you there now, but I hope to have the initial design and content ready by the end of the week.
  • My social web and tech blogging will go to Togetherism, built on Drupal. That’s a work in progress, but you can see the beginnings of it already and subscribe to the RSS feed if you like.
  • This blog (annezelenka.com) will be my thought blog where I’ll write about whatever interests me that doesn’t fit into the previous categories. Not sure what to do about my del.icio.us links, which are posted here daily and include a mix of topics. Maybe I will just post those to FriendFeed and start using that as my main aggregator. I haven’t gotten much into FriendFeed yet, but I haven’t been blogging or tweeting much lately. Judi likes it, and I trust her opinions.

I am hesitant to post this because I would rather have everything in place before I did it — a nonfood blog post on The Everyday Cafe, a meaty essay for this blog, a local blog ready for you to view. But “The beginnings and endings of all human undertakings are untidy” (John Galsworthy).
