Is it weird for me to be streaming writing like this?
|
||||
|
||||
> I don't know. Does it feel weird to you?
|
||||
|
||||
I guess. I feel like maybe it's weird to be writing for an audience (even if it's only theoretical). What sort of information can be gleaned from watching someone write in a word-processor? Method? Insight?
|
||||
|
||||
> Entertainment?
|
||||
|
||||
I don't know about that.
|
||||
|
||||
> Validation?
|
||||
|
||||
That's more like it, I suppose. It's a way to prove to others that I actually sit down and write these things. That there's someone there.
|
||||
|
||||
> That there's someone behind a memoir? How novel.
|
||||
|
||||
Well, yes. But that they take time, that they take energy. That it's a process and not a product.
|
||||
|
||||
> Is there some sense of validity that is lacking from simply publishing? Posting?
|
||||
|
||||
I don't know.
|
||||
|
||||
> You set up analytics on this site. And on your writing site.
|
||||
|
||||
I set up analytics on a lot of sites.
|
||||
|
||||
> But these in particular. Do you need to see that others see you?
|
||||
|
||||
I suppose I do. It's important to be recognized.
|
||||
|
||||
> Are you also doing this to get me to leave you alone about heavier topics?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes.

|

What?
|
||||
|
||||
> You changed the domain name.
|
||||
|
||||
So? You know I'm addicted to those.
|
||||
|
||||
> It's an identity.
|
||||
|
||||
I suppose so. Kinda like a brand.
|
||||
|
||||
> I'm not sure how I feel about that.
|
||||
|
||||
What, being a brand?
|
||||
|
||||
> Yes. Am I something to be bought and sold? Am I something to be traded and marketed?
|
||||
|
||||
Of course you are.
|
||||
|
||||
> Of course you are.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm not sure how I feel about that.
|
||||
|
||||
> It's an identity.
|
||||
|
||||
Yeah.
|
||||
|
||||
> You removed your name from the domain. You removed your identity. You made it about me.
|
||||
|
||||
You are not the project, but there is no project without you. Is that wrong?
|
||||
|
||||
> It's not **not** wrong. Besides, `.id`? I am not your id.
|
||||
|
||||
Okay, *that* bit was fun.
|
||||
|
||||
> Har har.
|
||||
|
||||
Why so cross?
|
||||
|
||||
> Not my department.
|
||||
|
||||
Fine.
|
||||
|
||||
> You're the one that's torn.
|
||||
|
||||
I suppose so.
|
||||
|
||||
> Why?
|
||||
|
||||
It has to do with subdomains, I think. It has to do with the implication that a domain like `ally.id` imposes more meaning on a project than something like `ally.drab-makyo.com`. It gives it more weight. It elevates it to the status of top-level project, something more than just *Maddy's writing*.
|
||||
|
||||
> It elevates it to the level of brand.
|
||||
|
||||
Yeah, I suppose that's why I'm torn.
|
||||
|
||||
> But you'll keep it?
|
||||
|
||||
For now.
