Let's go back to the start

A site is closing, moving, changing; with a great wail and gnashing of teeth (or in the case of some uncharitable few, mocking of those who gnash and wail), we lash out in the sea of change in search of new rocks on which to cling. Some offer handholds for more folk yet with greater exposure to the sloshing waves. Others have such dark and secret crannies that it is difficult to be sure who is in there with one, if at all.

But here, perhaps, is one that is both comforting in it's oddly familiar shape and yet new in its particulars, with soft moss to rest in, and conversation from those who are rest nearby. Perhaps it has a spot on which to eagerly cling for balance while slinging a new song out across the waters.

We can call others into a place strange and new, and perhaps we will find that it is home.

Hello, Blisstopia.

Ooh! Ooh! Dreamwidth supports RSS, so I can use Feedly to check on Dreamwidth journals along with other blogs. RSS readers have come a long way since I stopped using them and switched to Google+. Now, how hard is it to comment...

Not bad at all. If MeWe and pluspora support RSS, then I can just link everyone I care about into Feedly and then have one place to follow everyone and comment appropriatey. A bit kludgey, but this could work...

You can also follow everyone and comment directly from your Reading Page - there’s no reason to route everything out and around via RSS only to come back in!

....well, unless wrangling things through feedly is already part of your daily, in which case it makes sense to pull stuff in there. I keep poking my own Feedly with a stick, but have yet to really figure out how to integrate it into my internetting on the regular.

Feedly

I’m trying to go back to the old days of reading people’s blogs. Using the Feedly app means I can read many blogs in one place, and can add in Dreamwidth journals as well. That way i don’t have to also check the Dreamwidth app.

I am currently just making use of the Dreamwidth Inbox page to be able to keep up with comments, and the Reading Page for my reading... once things settle out, though, I am probably going to have to figure out how, if at all, to go about getting people's posts elsewhere to show up in my Feedly so I can keep up with them.

Most of the other sites folks are scattering to just feel Not Good to me. :-/
