It’s super fun! I love how slow the feed is- being able to thumb through quickly and grow a sense of recognition for recurrent names is cool, and I adore being able to easily check out a bunch of awesome personal sites people link on there. I always check out people’s about pages at the least, (speaking of, I need to work on mine!) and like to feed any virtual pets they have listed. Treats! Integrating my own little feed into my personal site was relatively easy, and I like how much I can make it all pink and cutesy to match with my personal styling.
Blogging can be kind of a drag, (still looking for ways to streamline the process for longer form posts, in the interim I’ve decided to use another site to sort of more easily type them up and have them collected somewhere in a presentable state until I feel like going about integrating them into my main site, probably in batches) but the micro updates status.cafe lets me pop up in a friction-less manner (they even have a little bookmarkable tool to update wherever you are across the web) has been fantastic for something jotted down off the cuff when I don’t have the time or energy for something longer.
