Planning my first poll.

[randomness]

I have some questions for my friends list with regard to breaking my food listings out from the other posts. But before I post the poll, I have a general question about blogging options.

I've come up with some options for segmenting my blogging, and I'm wondering if I've forgotten any.

--leave things as they were before I stopped food blogging, with the posts mixed in with all my other posts
--tag the food posts, and potentially, all my posts
--lj-cut the food posts, with a short description as the cut tag
--start an opt-out food filter
--start an opt-in food filter
--start a separate LJ for food postings
--start a separate blog, on another blogging site, for food postings, potentially syndicated back to LJ
--continue my self-imposed suspension of food listings

Please help by commenting on options I may have forgotten.

You could also adopt a multiple options approach. Create a new account r_ness_food and a new account r_ness_notfood, and then post the food posts to both r_ness and r_ness_food and the non-food posts to r_ness_notfood. This makes it very easy for people to get the right posts on their friends list.

However... it's not clear to me that you can automate this, so it makes posting a big pain. And it can screw up your efforts to read people's friends-locked post (if you're logged in to the wrong account). So mostly I think this is an inferior version of the separate LJ for food; presumably you would read others LJs logged in as r_ness, and they could subscribe to r_ness_food as they see fit, without screwing up your reading, and there's no need to double post things. (It does have the mild annoyance of having to log out and back in to switch accounts, but that's not too bad.)
