Quo tendimus? #atozchallenge

> #AtoZChallenge 2020 badge


The team decided our theme for this month's posts here would be "2020 visions of blogging." This set of weekday posts focuses on:
Blogging Hopes And Dreams For The Future

#AtoZChallenge 2020 Blogging from A to Z Challenge letter Q


Quo tendimus? Where are we going? Where will blogging be next year, five years from now, and further on?

I think you'll start seeing people leaving the traditonal blogging platforms and using social media to share their ideas instead. Twitter and Facebook (and the alternative social media platforms) are already being used as blogs by many users. Some have escaped the written word entirely, using YouTube to create vlogs, Soundcloud and Anchor to create podcasts. The advantages are many: the platforms are easier and more intuitive to use, it's easier for readers/viewers/listeners to leave comments, there isn't the concern about your theme being incompatible with mobile platforms, and so on. There are disadvantages as well: limitations on number of words, necessity of additional tools and production techniques, and so on.

One change that I hope to see is to move commenting and conversations away from the blog to social media. Doing that would solve one of the biggest problems we have: having a commenting system that was platform-independent. It's worth a thought, isn't it?

Those are my thoughts. What are yours?

Prompts to Play RPGs #AtoZChallenge

Features a Blog with 2020 Vision




I have read lots of amazing blogs this month, but one that stands out to me as something we all need is more fantasy. The world is on fire (not as much literally anymore as it was just a few months back). So, let’s invest some time in a fantasy world. Maybe you’re a fantasy writer in search of new ideas. Maybe you’re a gamer looking for inspiration to write your own Roleplaying Game (RPG) campaign or scenario. Either way, I definitely recommend checking out Uniquely Maladjusted but Fun. Her theme is a month of prompts and ideas for tabletop role-playing games or prompts for fantasy writers. The prompts are great and give you some great ideas of new and exciting things to incorporate into your worlds. Who could have guessed when she picked the theme months back that we would need to delve into a fantasy world as much as we do today!


What blogs are you PASSIONATE about reading, are PRECIOUS to you, or that bring you PLEASURE to read?
