Project 52

Well it’s the start of 2010 and the third year that this blog has been going, and I’m the first to admit that my posting schedule is a bit, well, erratic lets just say! It’s not that I don’t want to blog but often I find that with working, studying and working on personal projects as well as having a personal life that blogging slips to the bottom of the queue and often gets missed.

This is the reason that I have signed up to Project 52, a challenge that involves creating a new blog post every week for 2010. The aim is to increase the content and to keep the site regularly updated more, as it does feel I’m neglecting it at times. I’ve had a weekly reminder in my Remember the Milk list for a while now but more often than not I either postpone it or delete without actually having done it, and this is another “kick up the backside” for me to actually blog a bit more and utilise the site more.

The reason I moved to the blog from the homepage in the latest re-design was that it wasn’t updated too often and wasn’t good if users were presented with a scarcely updated blog when they accessed the site. I think one of the main reasons for this was that the blog was lacking in direction, with no clear plan of the kinds of posts I wanted and I blogged about a wide range of topics related to the web. I’ve been working on a plan for these posts which should follow a pattern for the weekly posts, and will be posted at the same time each week for consistency.

So here’s looking towards some great (and regular) content in 2010!
