Why Another Blog
Franz| October 26, 2008 5:40 pmI keep up a lot of different blogs, both personal and family. Many of them are targeted toward one particular interest I have. I needed a place to collect some of those entries to provide one overview of what I am writing about so I started this blog called “Franz Kelsch in Summary”. Think of this blog as the “best of” (or depending on your point of view “worst of”) blog. I will not normally create any content here, just copy content from another blog and sometimes shortened the post. I will then use this blog to feed via RSS to other applications, such as Facebook and my Franz Kelsch website.
This allows me to continue to put a lot of details and charts in my other blogs, items I am interested in, but may not be of interest to others, and still have a single place that will collect some of those blog entries but without the overkill of detail that I often use.
One example is the use of HTML code to insert tables that compare the details of a hill climb with past times. Those tables do not come into Facebook as a table, but just a bunch of text. In this blog, I will just not include them at all. If there is something I have left out that might be of some value, I will include a link back to the full blog posting.
It may sound like a lot of extra work, but the creation of the blog entry is the real work. After that is done, I can just cut and paste the HTML code from that blog entry over here, then remove any portion I want. I don’t plan to copy all my blog entries here but many of them.
