#Admin - Dealing with the moving goalposts...

Hi all,

After searching around for a bit to house this new brainchild, crazy idea of mine (to build a hyper-linked, non-linear website of a thing for all things... well... all things (but in particular math), I've finally decided on doing it right here on Blogger (mostly because I'm getting more familiar with it and it's free).

The idea is that there are going to be two kinds of posts - one that focuses on answering questions, and the other that focuses on building the online resource.

The ones that answer questions will follow a more traditional, blog-like scheme of being rather linear, dealing with a particular topic/question, utilizing the definitions pages and such when needed, but otherwise being stand-alone posts.

The ones that help to build the resource are going to be "living posts" - they are going to be edited and change, sometimes at great length, as content is added and the world of... well... everything (but in particular math) expands. As such, those posts won't remain static at all (or there are odds that they won't be. Perhaps I'll do a post about what those odds are???).

My hope is that this won't end up being a giant mess and instead will allow for integration of the resource, asking of questions, an ability to collaborate with readers, and overall be an enjoyable read for you and an enjoyable creation for me.

The place where the resource starts is the Index page - you can hyperlink from here or click on the link on the left side of the blog where it says "Start Here".

And with that, it's time to start writing!

(If there are areas that you feel have been missed or should be covered, please do drop me a line and I'll do what I can to make the needed content!)
