The Rising Tide of a Link

I’ve had a personal domain and Web site for over a decade. For a while, especially in the early years, it was the top-sited Web resource in its area of specialization.
But blogging is a different animal. It’s more conversational, and I the focus I wanted is completely unrelated to my old Web site. So a new domain (blogger) is fine.
I sometimes wonder if I wander on my blog. It’s not only about “gardening” after all. If something’s really off-the-wall, and I really want to share it, I just mark it as “Off-Topic” in the subject matter and let the readers decide. Tags and categories are better ways of organizing seemingly disconnected material within a blog than creating separate blogs.
