Changes At Splat And WiseTome.com

Those of you who have been visiting Splat regularly, might have seen a lot of changes that are happening around here in the past 24 hours. These changes have been made after quite a bit of considerations on the mission of WiseTome.com.

The mission of WiseTome is to become a continuously expanding library of articles and information on growing number of topics.

The topics were initially around interests of my own, and after that - around interests of people who joined the wagon. Splat, the blog of WiseTome.com, was meant to be the place-holder for all the information that we came across. We did put some research in to it, but not enough to deem it to be fit in WiseTome.com. And Splat has served the purpose well to that extent. There are 150 short articles on the different categories posted at Splat over the course of roughly an year.

The other things we are involved in made it difficult for us to concentrate on compiling the information we had amassed and put it in a digestible format. This point of time, I will be concentrating on that. So expect to have less frequent or even absent posting at Splat.

Here are some of the changes applied to Splat and WiseTome.com. This process has involved tradeoffs between ideal setup and not breaking anything up.

• Common theme for WiseTome.com and Splat. Splat is after all a part of WiseTome and to this extent, the Garland theme is used for both. I might put in some customizations, but focus would be on the content. There would be nothing fancy, as the goal of WiseTome.com is to provide information.
• Common navigation at high level. The main navigation section is a horizontal strip of links that would let you navigate between sections of the site easily. No other URL structure has been changed and that means, none of you nice people who have tracked back to any articles here will be left broken links. All links work as they would earlier.

So - what should you expect for the near future of Splat and WiseTome.com?

• Less frequent and less regular posting at Splat. I would be working on compiling the mass of information that we have at Splat into WiseTome - so there would be no posts from me. There might be few guest posts peppered. This would be for at least a couple of months if my estimates hold true.
• Compiled articles at WiseTome. There would be work done at compiling all the works of information from myself and other authors. I am yet to figure out the best way to do it - so if you have any suggestions - you are most welcome.

I think I would be tackling one section at a time. Expect round ups of those works here.
