When I first learned about digital gardening a few months ago, I did a deep dive into my options.
1. Super fancy highly technical gardens via my own website that super fancy highly technical people act is soooo easy to do that anyone could do it but really it is like learning another language. 2. Apps that are pretty cool and either free or low cost but that would necessitate me trusting that they were in it for the long haul and that my digital garden would not randomly vanish one day when I billionaire purchases their app. 3. My own little Weebly website which is yes, still assuming that Weebly isn't going anywhere, but at least feels a little bit more like I have control over my own content though that's probably an illusion. As you can see, I went with the third option. Of the digital gardening tools I looked at, Sublime was probably the best, although MyMind was pretty cool too. But Sublime, are you an annual garden or perennial garden? My trust of tech is at an all-time low. I didn't want to spend a lot or any time and energy building my garden there only to see it washed away on the whims of some rich weirdo. So I'm here. I guess technically this is a blog but I'm calling it my digital garden. The difference between a blog and a DG, or so they tell me, is that a blog is organized chronologically and a DG is organized thematically. Many blogs are often made up of more "formed" thoughts whereas gardens will be more likely to contain "seeds" of ideas. I'm not fancy enough to figure out how I could publish this DG and disregard the timing of my posts, but I at least have my little Categories field menu where folks can click on an idea and find my content. And I'm also not thinking about "writing a blog post" but just about putting thoughts into words and sending them off into the universe.

Author🪴 This is my digital garden, where I collect small snapshots of ideas, readings, images, feelings that I am working through. These are not intended to be formal or finalized thoughts or ideas but rather as seeds and sprouts that I am exploring. I am "learning out loud" and practicing expressing myself in this simple and imperfect format. May it be of benefit. ArchivesCategories
