MuseumLab Blog

Jef pointed me to this blog with interesting Museum content.

Looking at it made me realise that a good blog should be like a magazine - a series of interesting articles with a thread joining them together.

It confirms what I have long thought which is that my blog is too diverse - a bit like my working life. Not connected enough.

I have been wondering about splitting the blog into 3 one on London, one on Museums, and on on archaeology. But there again each would be too thin?

the "three blog split" could be a nice way to divide posts and bring focus, but you also divide your readership and could alienate your content, removing the metatextuality that can sprout from the already diverse themes you work with.

click around the arup foresight feed:

on this page, individual blog links are located on the right menu column differentiated by color. the main page aggregates all the information that is posted on the various blogs. clicking on one of the links to a blog acts as any other webblog meta tag or category archive, but changes the color of the template while retaining the same layout. this gives a visual cue that you are in a category sub-blog of a greater umbrella weblog.

maybe a rethinking of the ways one would organize the content could help your own page. i think the diversity of your current simply reflects your interests and your readership is probably just as diverse.

the content is sound. i say: keep it all together and rethink the design. good luck!
