If you tweet from your blog like I do, I recommend to write a blog post in the meantime to remember your accumulated tweets in the proper order. In another words, continue microblogging on your macroblog.

Twitter Tools plugin combines all my daily tweets into one aggregate blog post at the end of the day. I found it useful for remembering facts for my future autobiography: Crash Dump: A Software Engineering Autobiography (ISBN: 978-1906717193).

The fact of having 7 blogs suggested me to create a blog where I can discuss various trends and unify themes spread accross my blogs. My recent interest in application of topos theory to software troubleshooting and debugging suggested me the Greek word “topos” as a blog “location” equivalent and it also has nice associations with a literary topos as well. I therefore suggest the following definition:

Blog topos

a blog theme or a common theme across various blogs
