🎶 🎶 🎼 🎼 🎹 🎹 Music … interested? Read on.
I learned something today … thankyou @smokey - enter a URL … like (say) JustGoodMusic.Net … and it is suddenly an entity to be followed within micro.blog
I choose that URL specifically … I own it - but it has sadly languished for a few years and is due for renewal. I was going to let it die … you can find it in the way back machine, though just a shadow of its former self and I just don’t have the time these days.
But, instead of letting it go … an idea …
What if JustGoodMusic.Net was reborn and lived in MicroBlog?
Here’s what I am thinking …
@manton sets up micro.blog/justgoodmusic
I point the ‘justgoodmusic.net’ DNS to that account.
The microblog account is a shared account that a few volunteers have access to … so they can post into that account … aswell as their own and all those music posts appear at justgoodmusic.net .
Maybe we can set it up so that any post tagged with 🎶 or 🎼 or 🎹 automatically gets posted to justgoodmusic (stretch goal?)
In this way - JustGoodMusic.Net becomes a music domain that represents the best of the micro blog music collegiate … is that something that could be worked out @Manton?

Who Is The REAL Taron Egerton - And Why Is He Welsh?
I had cause to look up Taron Egerton on Wikipedia (do you need to know why) … where I read …
”Taron David Egerton (born 10 November 1989) is an English-born Welsh actor.
… which to me at least doesn’t make sense - so I checked out some more … my bold
”He was born in northern England but raised Welsh. Egerton’s parents, who are both British, moved from Cheshire, England to Wales when he was a baby. “All my friends are Welsh, I speak Welsh, and I feel very Welsh,” he said.
So if I ‘feel' European … do I have to worry about Brexit? Assuming I speak German or French or one of the other ‘Euro' languages?
Seperate fact - at one point he did live in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch - take note @derekpeden :-)
His grandmother was born in Wales - so I guess he is at least 25%.
Seeing that 1Password 7.3 is Available for Mac and Brings Major Updates to 1Password Mini … was wondering of all the 1Password users out there, how many are still on V6 (like me) and how many upgraded to subscription V7.
What are us V6 users really missing out on?

Here’s an idea … stop ‘content marketing’ altogether.
Instead write engaging posts and articles. Share interesting pictures and music. Engage at an emotional level …. but whatever you do … don’t do ‘content’.

Mixed feelings about Medium.
Mixed feelings about Galloway.
But this is well worth a read.

Hard to believe that this is still going on and nothing has been done about Philip Green.
Three years ago they announced BHS was closing

Gove: Britain must leave the EU before holding election
”Britain must leave the European Union before holding another national election, because there is the risk of a Labour government and no Brexit.
Or to put it another way .. party first, country second.
Michael Gove: ‘I’ve evolved as politician and can lead Tories’
… while true … to be fair, there was and still is a lot of upside!
An interesting set of accounts @manton … akin to the guardian , nyt et al … assuming you set them up … is there a larger plan running through your mind?
