Giving Blogging Another Try

Blogging and I have had an off-and-on relationship.

I tried Blogger for a while, back in the day, and later on the more minimalist Silvrback. I even dallied with self-hosting a little, experimenting with the static site generators Pelican and then Hugo on my own website.

For whatever reason, none of it stuck.

On the other hand, I find myself using Standard Notes a lot to jot down random thoughts about all kinds of things. And I can't deny that the idea of being able to turn one of these notes into a blog post almost at the touch of a button is seductive.
