As I head up to Brooklyn for a week of meetings, I thought I'd try something a little different on the site. Every morning, I post 2-3 things to the site with a mini-writeup and some images (or, at least, I try to do that). I find it to be a nice way to start the day but it can also be stressful to try and keep up with my own self-imposed schedule.
So, instead of trying to do that to myself while I'm away in another city, I've reworked the site ever so slightly to pull the sidebar items into the main feed. If you're viewing the site on mobile, nothing looks any different. If you're viewing it on Desktop or Tablet, you're likely seeing some odd spacing and a bit of chaos with a bunch of posts all thrown together. THAT'S what I want to try - just having everything all in one feed.
So, if I post a quick little link or favorite a tweet, it shows up here in the main feed for all browser sizes. There's plenty of visual work to be done to make it a more pleasant browsing experience but at least this will tell me (and you) if this is a good way to go or not for the site.
That's 3 paragraphs of behind-the-curtain thinking and likely 100% unnecessary. TLDR: I'm going to have less time to post for the next week so I'm making it easier for myself to post for the next week.
