Balancing the Blog

Posted by mac on Feb 23, 2009 in blog status |

There’s are at least two little imbalances to our little blog here. I’m sure you’ve already noticed, but nonetheless for some reason I feel like these should be explicitly addressed.

  1. It’s called Our Chicago Blog but it’s thus far mostly been Shana’s Chicago blog.
  2. We claim that this blog is about our lives here in Chicago but a disproportionate percentage of posts are about our cats or biking. Lately, it’s leaned heavily toward the former. In all fairness, the non-work aspect of our life here is in fact occupied mostly by these things. In fact, there’s a cat on my lap right now. And as I’m typing, my attention is intermittently being pulled this toward the open door of my office as our other cat walks by every 60 seconds or so. He stops just long enough with each passing to ensure that I take note of the jealous look on his face. Case in point, I could have not mentioned these happenings, but this is a big part of our “social lives.”

In an effort to bring some semblance of order to the chaos we’ve come up with a topic-centric weekly posting schedule.

  • Monday Product Endorsement
  • Tech Tuesday
  • Wednesday Bites
  • Chicago Thursday
  • Friday’s Smooth Move of the Week

I’m going to leave it at that and refrain from explaining these categories. I feel like if we start imposing rigid definitions right off the bat, we could potentially make it much harder to justify fitting our cats in. At this point, for all you know, Wednesday Bites you very well be about cats…

So, stayed tune. It’s Monday and today Shana will present you with our first official Product Endorsement. :-)
