I’m thinking that it might be useful – mainly to my future self when I come to revisit a project that I last looked at a while ago – to be a bit more diligent at capturing the process and status of my various hobbies and projects. A cross between a journal for me to look back on and a set of notes to keep myself organised.
New Year’s Day seems like a good time to make a start on such a project – the blogging platform is already set up (WordPress) though the site is active only on my local network for the time being (hosted on Synology DS920) – but by using WordPress it should be relatively easy to move it onto something public if I think it might have wider value. It’s possible that some of the workshop projects might be interesting to other people thinking of undertaking similar modifications, if only as an illustration of how NOT to do it!
I have a blog dedicated to my fellwalking at https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/blogs/richardkchapman which should possibly migrate over here (or be copied here by way of a backup) in case that site ever goes away). I had a 365 project though I don’t seem to be able to find it any more! Did it go away when I didn’t renew my subscription? That sounds like another good reason to move to self-hosting here should I decide to repeat such a project.
Possible topics I may cover:
- Workshop projects
- Photography projects
- Random bits of code
- Arduino and other embedded projects
- Fellwalking
- etc etc.
