This Blog is Changing

In the next few days this blog will change (note the date of this post in case you're reading this after the fact). I'll start posting photos to a more pure photo blog at this URL and keeping a separate text oriented blog. Here are the links you'll need to know:

Japan Window PHOTO blog -
http://www.japanwindow.com

Japan Window TEXT blog -
http://www.japanwindow.com/blog

The second link is active now and fully functional, so you can change your bookmark or RSS feed any time and add the other bookmark when the photo blog is ready.

Why the change? I love taking photos and writing, but combining both in one blog has been self-defeating. Loading pictures in a text-oriented blog is really a pain. This makes me reluctant to take pictures sometimes, because I don't have time to deal with the ones I have. It also pushes me toward writing only when I have time to put together a complete post (with photos and text), which often keeps me from writing short posts when I have something to say.

I want to take better photos, and this photo blog will mark a step in that direction. If you come here for the photos, you should be pleased.

I also want to write well. If you come here for the writing, you should also be pleased (just note the new link above). And if you come here for both the photos and text, just be sure to check both blogs from now on.
