My project for Consortium of Seven this week was to gather the links for each Blogger site with a year of the blog on it. A few months after the blog was begun, onother group member and I agreed that we'd build a new site for each year. That way there wouldn't be one monolithic collection growing ever more unwieldy and more likely to crash.
So now, in this fourth year, we have yet another site, ha ha. But it seemed the easiest way to get each year's mass of bloggy wonders in one place. The new site (Consortium of Seven: All Together Now) has not only links to each year of writing and images found on the Blogger sites, but also links to the Facebooked archives. There are separate Facebook Pages for Years 1, 2, 3, and 4 (the current one), so now the links to those are nicely grouped together.
Making the directory was a bit of work, but I felt like the third little pig who made a house of brick. Any creative project in the digital world is like a house of straw or sticks that come apart. You never know when some wolf billionaire will come blow it down. This way maybe the treasure trove of words and pictures will stand the test of time a little better. The more places the blog sits, the better its chances of being seen.
Where to find it all? Right here: Consortium of Seven: All Together Now
