Remember the early days of the Internet? There were all types of easy blogging platforms, most people had a blog of some sort, there were commentaries quoting other blogs, h/t, etc.?With the advent of platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn, it sorta short-circuited what I’d say was a better way to communicate, collaborate, and exchange on the web. Plus the content was locked away behind logins, often no easy way to search, and it was branded under the platform (and not you, the content creator).Tumblr, especially in its early days, was a nice middle ground – Away from long-form blogging, simplifying the ability to add media, Reblogs were great, etc.Perhaps it’s nostalgia, but I’ve been thinking something a la the early days would be nice, but hadn’t run across anything like what existed before (or even a more modern re-imagination). Until now …Micro.blog is a simple, strong feature set, low-cost way to ‘do internet’ right – You can have your own real estate, there’s built in media sharing (even easy podcasting), a human-run community, and more.I think this exists in my future sometime soon. :)
