Digital Garden
A garden is something inbetween a personal blog and a wiki. Itโs a collection of evolving notes, essays, and ideas that arenโt strictly organised by their publication date. Theyโre inherently exploratory โ posts are linked through contextual associations. They arenโt refined or complete - posts can be published as half-finished thoughts that will grow and evolve over time. Theyโre less rigid, less performative, and less perfect than the personal โblogsโ weโre used to encountering on the web.
