Well, as anyone who reads the old blog or follows me on Twitter or Facebook* knows, I decided to incorporate my photo diary posts over here on PopPoppa. This was an idea I had back when I moved the posts off of UnitedMonkee, but decided to give them their own blog. Considering most of the entries wind up being about the baby or my experience as a dad anyway, I figured it would make sense to post them here and give myself one less blog to worry about. This will also give me an opportunity to get more creative with my categories and tagging, which sounds boring on the surface, but less so when you think of looking at something like “Teething” and then getting a look at all the photo diary entries that have to do with it as well as the normal posts I wrote. Okay, maybe only I find that interesting, but it will make for a more complete and cross-referenced digital memory bank, so I like it. Admittedly, this will also give me far more posts on PP than I seem capable of writing on a weekly basis and might even give me more ideas for longer posts.

* When I moved everything from the old blog over to this one, I thought it would let me look at things before publishing, but that wasn’t the case. Since I have this blog hooked up to go out through Twitter and Facebook automatically, when the posts moved every single one of them got linked individually on those social media sites. As a result, I’m sure I clogged a few walls and streams and whatnot, but all those Tweets also used up my daily allotment, something I didn’t even know exists. So, sorry about all that.
