Define: Lazy Blogging
Blogs February 22nd, 2007
The act of maintaining ones weblog via proxy or more specifically, using an API feature from a remote service, such as the one from del.icio.us, to automatically post to your blog.
I’ve been using the daily blog posting feature of del.icio.us for a few years. It started out sparse, but admittedly the daily link dump has dominated my blogging activities (as you can see from the archives).
I’m sure my wife and friends can attest to how many times I’ve stated, “I need to blog more”, but the quick “select text”, right-click, “post to del.icio.us” is just too damn easy. Perhaps if I state my ambition more publicly it would inspire me to post more “manual”.
After maintaining this blog for over seven years I owe it to myself.
Nah… Lazy Blogging rules! I’ll do both.
