Microblogging

Microblogging is a combination of blogging and instant messaging that allows users to create short messages to be posted and shared with an audience online. Social platforms like X (formerly Twitter) have become extremely popular forms of this type of blogging. These short messages can come in a variety of content formats including text, images, video, audio, and hyperlinks.

Formerly known as a “Quickie” tag here, I’ve re-assigned a “Micro” tag to every microblogging post I published. Again, think Twitter but without the algorithm and adverts. If you only want to see these quick snippets then, I have generated a “Micro” page at the top of this website. Or, click on the two lines in the upper right hand corner on your mobile. This will display a collection of Micro posts to date.
