Greetings, humans. I love writing, and I love long-form content. But researching, drafting, editing, organizing, structuring, proofing, and posting the sorts of material I like to put out on the interwebz is a pretty daunting proposition. So, I had a thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
As much as I want to (and will) continue working on my primary websites (or “blogs” although I hate that term; namely this one<\/a> and this one<\/a>), I just don’t post as often as I want to for the reasons I already mentioned. But often, I just want to talk about some cool thing I found, or some new idea I came across. So I decided that one solution is to make writing and posting things less onerous. <\/p>\n\n\n\n And by that, I mean: Smaller. Shorter. Easier. With a lowered bar. The result is wesidue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This site doesn’t really have a tagline. But if it did, it might be, “What remains after thinking too much.” Or, perhaps, “Notes, fragments, and other intellectual runoff.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n It occurred to me that “Leftover thoughts” might be good, so I sort of riffed on that for the home page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Long-form content will continue on QueryBang<\/a>. Long-form content on film photography will continue on Beyond the Aperture<\/a>. But I’m hoping that a sense of not needing to scale a mountain every time I want to write something will make wesidue<\/strong> something interesting for me \u2014 and perhaps for some of you as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enjoy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Greetings, humans.
