Segregating blogs

2/3 days back, my better half made a [verbal] comment about my blog, “More than half of the entries on your blog goes above my head, they are too technical for me. But rest are good one and I really enjoy reading them. But these [so called enjoyable entries] too few”.

Okay … to tell you the truth, she had said this comment quiet a many times now, but never before with such seriousness. Earlier also she made same kind of comment for all my F1 related entries. As usual, I gave in and created another blog for F1 related entries. So now I am maintaining 2 blogs, one is this one and second is The F1 Blog.

I know many people maintain multiple blogs, each one [blog] for their different needs/subject/authority. But is it really easy to maintain multiple blogs ? Given my current professional workload scenario, I know it is going to increase in the future so would the time I’ll get to blog, so is it really worth segregating my current blog ? That’s the question I’ve been asking myself, but still haven’t came to any conclusion.

So do you maintain multiple blogs ? How many ? Do you really think it is worth the time & effort for doing so ? Most important, how do you find the time to update all of your blogs ?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Quick Update: I have removed Blog-Shot since I’m not getting the time to work on it. But it will be back pretty soon.

Quick Update 2: Blog-Shot is back !!

‘Add to Netvibes’ bookmarklet

Few days back, I sent a mail to Netvibes dev team regarding creating a bookmarklet for Firefox/Flock which could ease the process of subscribing to feed of a blog on Netvibes [those who are using Netvibes knows it's quiet a long process].

Well, the good people didn’t replied to my mail. So finally I thought of giving it a shot myself. As it turned out, it was very very simple to create one. So here it is:

CLICK HERE

It is infact a very simple bookmarklet. Whenever you want to subscribe to feed of a blog, simply click the bookmarklet which will open a new window. Then Netvibes will show you the list of available feeds for that blog that you can subscribe to.

If you are already logged in to Netvibes then the feed will be added to first page of your Netvibes account, else it will first ask you to login to Netvibes and then add the feed to first page. Simple as that.

Google Calender Launched

I came to know about the launch of google Calendar through TechCrunch, where you will get the details of the features.

And what a way to launch !! When I tried to check-it-out, below is what I got:

And this happened 4 times, each tried after some 30 minutes duration. Way to go Google.

Oh! Did I forgot to mention …. It’s a BETA release [the Forever Beta Company].
