So I have tried and failed to start blogging many times. My main motivation for blogging is as a place to document my findings, experimentations and failures both as a reference guide to myself but also for others. The whole process of writing down an interesting problem or observation really helps to cement that in my mind and just through the explanation it brings up all sorts of cases that I wouldn't necessarily have considered.
When I have attempted to do it before, I've intended to use a simple command line static blog generator. Some good tools I found in this vein are bashblog and ssg. In trying out these tools I'd always seem to get distracted and start obsessing over small details like the styling/layout or RSS support and structure. These tools were opinionated enough that they became a bit of a distraction.
The whole purpose of this blog is to get down ideas almost as soon as possible. To this end I have set this blog up on Blogger. It just lets me write stuff down from my phone, a Chromebook as well as my main development machine.
