It has not been for the lack of saying, &quot;Let me<br \/>\ntry again. I promise, dear readers, this time will be different.&quot;<br \/>\nAlthough my weblogs have been very sleepy, I am succeeding in writing<br \/>\nin <A HREF=\"http:\/\/raymondyee.net\/wiki\/TodaysNotes\">my wiki<\/A> in an<br \/>\nalmost daily fashion. Yeah! In quite a few ways, I find the wiki to<br \/>\nbe a publishing environment more conducive to my way of working. I<br \/>\nlike the way in which I can accumulate materials in a logical,<br \/>\nnetworked way much more easily than I could in a blog. Certainly, I<br \/>\nfound that my wiki was missing a chronological framing, which I have<br \/>\nhalf-heartedly shoehorned into my wiki with the <A HREF=\"http:\/\/raymondyee.net\/wiki\/DailyNotes\">&quot;Daily<br \/>\nNotes&quot;<\/A>. (I say shoehorned because the navigational<br \/>\nstructures are currently very weak.)<br \/>\n<\/P><br \/>\n<P>So with my wikis going so well, why not just drop my blogs?<br \/>\nWeblogs are perhaps an easier way to navigate the chronological<br \/>\naspects of my online presence. My weblogs could provide another layer<br \/>\nof redaction. The wiki -- at least the way I use it -- is a messier<br \/>\nplace. I did not want everyone to have to follow the muck if they did<br \/>\nnot want to. Moreover, the separate personal and professional weblogs<br \/>\nwas a big attempt to distinguish my personal and private worlds. The<br \/>\nwiki conflates the two. I have thought about building a personal and<br \/>\nprivate wiki -- and that might still happen -- but for the moment,<br \/>\nmaintaining two wikis for the personal\/private split is too much<br \/>\nwork. (That is not to say, however, that I won't want to spin off ad<br \/>\nhoc wikis or ones for the Scholar's Box, a group project.)<br \/>\n<\/P><br \/>\n<P>Also I had the idea of &quot;publishing&quot; my pieces, freezing<br \/>\nthem when I ported them to my blog. By default, I have left pages on<br \/>\nmy wiki open for constant re-editing. Freezing things is sometimes<br \/>\nhelpful. Maintaining a two-tier web presence meant writing stuff<br \/>\nfirst in my wikis and then transfer\/repurpose materials for my<br \/>\nweblogs. That's where things did not work out as desired.<br \/>\n<\/P><br \/>\n<P>I think that something can be done about this problem. I think<br \/>\nthat the big problem was that I did not leave enough time for the<br \/>\nediting and republishing process. I want to see now whether I can<br \/>\n<\/P><br \/>\n<P>A happy consequence of a better workflow would be solving the<br \/>\ncontinual phenomenon of <A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/search?hl=en&amp;lr=&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;c2coff=1&amp;safe=off&amp;oi=defmore&amp;q=define:de+novo\">de<br \/>\nnovo<\/A> creation of blog entries. I don't seem to have any problems<br \/>\nwith writing on my wiki. But when I sat down to blog immediately, I<br \/>\nfroze.
