2 Blogs are Not Better than One!

Today I decided to act upon something I had been thinking about for a while. I initially started blogging last January with this blog "Half Way Along Life's Highway" and in late spring decided that some posts had a lot to do with the city I live in and perhaps I should split the posts into 2 blogs by subject matter. So I created my second blog "Toronto Is My Town".

I had this vague thought that some people might follow my Toronto blog while others would follow this blog. That has not really proven true. While this blog does get more hits and does have more followers, many folks do wander from one blog to the other. There is no discrete separation of followers.

Content wise, I might start out with a theme which should point to either the Toronto blog or the other one as its home, truth is, I am inclined to wander between the two opposite goal posts in any given blog.

My blogs about Toronto and the events I attend here are really closely linked with stuff about me and the life I lead and opinions I have with regard to current events and the world around me.

Following the stats, it seems that a lot of folks hop back and forth between the two blogs, and I seldom write in both on any given day, so it is a bit of an inconvenience. So I have combined my blogs into one - the Toronto Is My Town Blog.

So this wil be the last blog I publish in this particular blog address. In time I will retire it, but in the meantime will leave it open with this last post to point any travelers who might like to vist to come see me at my other blog.

Friends who were kind enough to "befriend me" on this blog are invited to do so on my new blog. Not that I judge success by the number of followers I have, but it does motivate one to keep writing knowing that there are followers who will be checking back to read content.
