Directional Uncertainty in an Uncertain Blog

I noticed a few days ago that I’ve been writing on this blog since roughly August of 2004, and although I doubt anyone reading now has been around since then, I’m aware of at least one person who has been around that long: me. And that person has grown tired and confused with what The Details has become.

I’ve been using WordPress since July of 2005 and before that I was blogging on the back of a custom CMS I had written in PHP and MySQL. Along the way I’ve had several different looks, and all but one of those I’ve been unhappy with. Over the last three and a half years, other than the fact that it’s been written by me and published through WordPress, I can’t think of anything about it that’s been consistent.

All my thoughts on the direction, if any, that this blog could take were compounded months ago when I moved all my design and work over to SuperWindy. With my work mind and personal mind now seemingly having unique homes, I noticed a slowing in desire to post my design related thoughts here on IAAM.

So, all that to say, I’m still completely unsure as to what shape things will take here in the coming months. With a new move across the country and all the comes that come with such a step, I’m assuming things will seemingly die here as I try to figure out my new voice and this blog’s new direction. My initial thoughts point me towards slow and deliberate posts here of moderate to considerable length and a new blog on SuperWindy with quick updates, long format thoughts and writings, and the sharing of things and places of inspiration.

Thanks for visiting in the past, present, and future. Maybe I’ll figure out something enjoyable for you to see and read some time soon. And, in the off chance that I don’t, I’m sure you’ll get over it and find something else to fill your time.

I suggest going outside and reading a book.
