Welcome to August which means once again it is time for the Blaugust Festival of Blogging!

In its simplest form, Blaugust is a blogging challenge “to post 31 times during the month of August”, typically once a day, however, doubling up (etc.) is allowed and provides the nice forgiving flexibility of catching up in case you miss a day.

Started in 2014, the challenge has been officially announced and organized every year since except 2017. However in 2020 there were two! The organizer first moved it up to April, renaming it “Blapril”, then held another in August 2020 with the usual name and routine.

See the IndieWeb wiki page for more details and history:

And this year’s Blaugust announcement post:

If you’ve been looking for an excuse to start posting again to your blog or personal site, join the challenge and do it with friends.

You may post about any topic, and simple note posts (like this one) are fine.

I am going to use this as an opportunity to resume my 100 Posts of IndieWeb effort for the year.

This is post 9 of #100PostsOfIndieWeb. #100Posts #IndieWeb
