Heisenberg uncertainty principle or how I learned to stop worrying and love the blog

Who do you write your blog for?

Personally, I write for me. I document the adventures of Dibble because I enjoy writing about it, not because I think anyone else genuinely cares. I only know one other person on my server that blogs about FFXI so it's not like I'm part of a group of like-minded bloggers. I'm not even trying to become part of such a group. I just like writing about what I have done with Dibble :)

Would you change the way you write your blog if it starts to get more traffic or if it's syndicated?

I've _tried_ not to. I have been writing on my blog the same way since I started and it only started to be syndicated recently. If I have to think about how it's going to look when it's syndicated everytime I post then a little bit of the enjoyment dies for me. Also, if people start to read your blog regularly doesn't changing your style defeat the point?

So, what to do?

I haven't decided. I've made a twitter feed (is it called a feed?) and I'll see how I get on with that but tbh I like writing my blog the way I write it now. So, the probable outcome is that'll stop syndicating my blog and go back to happier days :)
