Sometimes a girl's just got to write... and sometimes she doesn't. Distracted Mind is the home of one such "girl". Feminist, woman, wife, artist, mother; there's a lot of different hats worn around here and things get busy. Somehow I always seem to come back.
Table of Contents | The Elements of Typographic Style Applied to the Web
A fabulous resource for anyone who takes typography serious… or just wants to learn how type on the web _should_ work. This is a serialized site — chapters are added periodically, and each one is easy to understand and its concepts are easy to apply.
I may have started using [Tumblr](http://www.tumblr.net/) for little blogging quickies, but I really wanted to keep my regular [WordPress](http://www.wordpress.org) weblog for various reasons like my silly attachment to the software, the powerful features, and the many options that WordPress offers. I love this piece of software, but unfortunately it is _so_ feature-rich that I sometimes become all ambitious and want to post masterpieces (hence the no-post in recent times).
Instead of ditching WordPress or not trying tumblr, I’ve decided to integrate them using something called [ReBlog](http://www.reblog.org), which allows you to syndicate posts from rss feeds. Now, I’m sure this tool is used for evil on a daily basis by link farmers and spammers, but I ain’t one of ‘em. I’m just using this tool for its sweet little integration feature, which has made life a lot easier in terms of the brain power I had to expend to get the two weblogs talking to each other. If you’re not evil and bent on making the internet a more cluttered place full of junk, I recommend ReBlog to splice your different blogs together.
