NEW BLOG POST - "Well I didn't do very well at Blaugust."

#blogging #blaugust2026 #xblog

https://davehenry.blog/2026/09/well-i-didnt-do-very-well-at-blaugust/

I posted this in the #Blaugust Discord, but I also wanted everyone following social media hashtags to see it as well.

"I very much want to thank everyone here for their grace this year. I was WOEFULLY underprepared to take this on this year, and almost everyone I encountered was wonderful, supportive, and tolerant of my blunders.

I love this community far too much to let this event wither away (even if I don't always feel the same way about my own blog), and I am so grateful that the community seems to feel the same way."

Blaugust 2026 Wrap-Up

I didn't manage daily blogging past day 12, or 31 posts in the month. I wrote 20 posts, including reviews of two books, a game, my dying phone and its replacement. I also finished some older drafts and revived my dormant Les Mis blog with a Star Trek post (really).

Blaugust Wrap-Up
http://82mhz.net/posts/2026/09/blaugust-wrap-up/

#blogging #blog #blaugust #blaugust2026

There are many paths onto the #indieweb. Two of the most common:
1. an idea for a name and a website
2. a desire to create and express yourself, independently of social media

If you start with (1), have an idea for a domain name, find one, and buy it, then you need a place to direct it to.

The simplest next step is setting up a content hosting service, and configuring it with your new domain name.

If you start with (2), a desire to create and publish, then similarly, the simplest first step is to set up a content hosting service.

Either way, you should choose a service that supports custom domain names.

Had a great chat with Joe Crawford (@artlung.com) this morning about the many ways people find their way to the indieweb, and set up their own indieweb site.

We talked about the challenges of attaching a domain name to a service, and how that could be better documented and explained.

Subsequently Joe took the initiative to create a new "custom domain name" page on the IndieWeb wiki to help consider and choose a content hosting service that supports custom domains:

* https://indieweb.org/custom_domain_name

There are both free options and paid options depending on what kind of features, user experience, and support you want.

Most paid options cost less than a latte a month, certainly less than monthly mobile phone or video streaming fees.

Know other content hosting services that support custom domain names?

Add them to the wiki page!

And if you prefer to install and run your own content management software or create your one yourself, you can do that too:

* https://indieweb.org/CMS

If you do create one, watch out for spending more time coding than writing.

Or code away! It’s your site, code, write, mix it up as you wish.

Now that I've got my 31 posts in, I'd like to take a look back at Blaugust 2026. It's just a Thing we Do when blaugust-ing.

Last week, I checked out Noriko for some handrolls. You can usually find temaki options at higher-end resturants, but Noriko's made it their whole menu.

New post on #BurgeonLab

Really chuffed about my first go at this blogging event. The last day was exceptional with my second ever guest / collab post (this time with James).

Thanks for everyone who followed my Blaugust journey! I look forward to doing more next year.

On this last day of #Blaugust2026, I take a look back on my posts for the month - grateful as usual for having participated even if it felt tough to do at some points!

31 posts achieved!

Hey #Blaugust2026 participants!

I know a lot of folks are not in the Discord, so I wanted to share this out on the Fediverse too, because it makes SO MUCH LESS work for me if you all fill out the self-reporting form.

I hope to have the #blaugust wrap up post with awards out sometime this weekend, and everyone who self-reports their post counts make that more likely.

Please feel free to share this around.
