Monday Madness - A Never Ending Blog Post Nightmare
Have you heard of the old never ending song, the never ending story? How about a never ending blog post.
The thought of a never ending link is kind of funny, right?
No. Not in the day light of reality.
Gosh, I just have to share this morning. I have been daydreaming of suddenly being a short post blogger. And I have been a night dreamer of the same goal. I bring my day problems into my night dreams, don't you?
Well. recently I had this dream where I went and took my long blogs and created read more links. I had the main blog on with read more here. That took me to another link which said read on more here, which took me to still another one . And so it went on still with about two more links. Yes, a night mare of something like an April fools prank. Maybe my dream was trying to tell me my blogs get a little long. I feel I have things to say and it has to be said, or I get no nourishment from the blogging. My dream is telling me I am working on solving my issues, but I am still lost in the fog.........
The thought of a never ending link is kind of funny, right? But in reality to the reader it might be long and boring. It would have to be one great blog to keep me clicking past two other sites.
Yet when, I go to a new blog, I love to find good blogs and I scroll all the way through. If they are short, I read each one and keep clicking older, and older, until I get the craving to visit yet another blog. On my designated day of Sunday reading, I will be visiting some of the blogs I am following. I find that when I do, I can catch up easily with a number of them. I have noticed three styles.
- page - The very short blog with a link to the longer version. And there is a collection of these on a page.
-page - collections of A medium length post of satisfactory length and no clicks to read more.
-page- Collections of various links, but no clicks to read more of the post.
Solving the issue.
On my blog posts, I can cut the repeat of the same thoughts and simply develop my thoughts. But bits of reaction thoughts still need to have to be said. Points made. After all this is where anyone should be able to pick up and take off with the search. through my notes and comments they know the points about what has been done before. And in return, maybe, I will get comments of other readers and relatives thoughts and perspectives on the research.
I will need to analyze and go with the main thought and possibly as I like to do with the second point. Data is the most important part. I can keep it slightly personal of course
My blog is all about getting the data out there. My interpretation of the data. My blog is a journal in a way too. A to do list. it is also a collection place for others to contribute their family information or stories. At the same time it may only appeal to my relatives, with an interest in the family. I hope others won't mind reading it to see if I have any unique ideas for search. Or they may have to read it to see if I have any of their family members or clues about the family. When people have a question about my family, I usually send them to my blog .
My blog is all about bringing in the people and hopefully my family.
And I hope my blog will be a good experience, not a pain, or difficult.
Well this blog post started out short and went on and on it hinted of a night mare. I can go on and on writing about genealogy research my research and interest and material available forever and ever today. But I won't all in one post. I'll always save some of it for another day. Hopefully that will never end. However, this post has to end today.

Have a great evening and I will be around again soon.
