Introducing – Watching Magic


WatchingMagic: is my new baby, I registered the watchingmagic domain a while back after seeing the explosion in internet video and how that has crossed into the magic domain. After wondering what to do with it, finally a few days ago I decided to set up what has become known as a Tumblelog also known as a Linklog. I think one of the reasons I don’t post here too often (other than time restraints) is the necessity of having to structure a blog post, around something which may be just a quick link or snippet or video clip. I knew about the Tumblelog concept and recently revisited it, and found that this could be a perfect companion to the main blog. Rest assured The Magician will always be my main site and place for my magic, but I think a companion ‘scrapbook’ type log is perfect for all those bits and pieces I run across that don’t quite make it to a full blog post. So rather than clutter the main blog with these expect to see more things appearing over at WM than have been here, but they will literally be links, scraps of text, video clips etc, no commentary, titles, long reviews/rants or witty comment to go with it!

I realise its another site to check, and I am still wrestling somewhat as to why I couldn’t just use this place for this concept, but I think having a new companion site is the way to go, and you can read it via the WatchingMagic Feed so it shouldn’t be too difficult to keep up! I’m as always interested to have your comments/feedback/ideas etc. Its still very experimental and early days, so it may all change, but for now its my new toy, that I share with you…
