I don't care if people visit my blog

This sounds kind of like a blog-as-database approach. Certainly the flexibility in reading formats is nice. I guess I wonder why not open it to less of a forced-newest-first display, if the goal is to be info-first. RSS and other feeds are really good at making old stuff seem irrelevant, or simply hiding it.<p>Personally I like a little bit of that chronological feed mindset. Certainly my thinking evolves over time. Hopefully for the better, averaged out.<p>But I also like to use the &quot;blog as website experience stuff&#x2F;tools&quot; and hope that it benefits my visitors as much as it benefits me. Tags, sidebar and footer content, integration of other databases. I find my own blogs&#x27; website interfaces useful to me, in a variety of ways.<p>I&#x27;m also working on a custom navigation menu to give what I&#x27;m working on more of a presentational, organized approach. Even if some portion of my audience won&#x27;t use it, I can tell that the reverse chrono feed format just isn&#x27;t doing, and can&#x27;t do, everything. It also needlessly reinforces the worst parts of the &quot;new vs old content&quot; dichotomy. Some of my visitors tell me they really like my old, buried content. It may not be who I am now, but it seems to interface well with who they are, and what they want.<p>Good food for thought, thanks for posting.
