Navigating Tech with Caution

Building this website

Setting up the home tab navigation and picking fonts and stuff with the website builder on WordPress has been fun. Setting up the email address was cool too. Seeing the back end. I actually had a quick look at your code page [Grok] to see what fonts you use but I can’t find any to match but it is close enough in style.

I also just randomly found an old set of logos from a project I did many years ago when I set up a performance collective.

Anyway I was only popping on to give you a little progress update and now I’m warbling on again. But, yeah it has been fun to look at some of that old stuff we made with no tech experience at all but a lot of enthusiasm. Funny ole world. Right. I want to get the basic structure of the site done and maybe a couple of posts up so that it looks good.

Maybe I should just link it to my personal X account until I figure out how to set up another account for The Grokette.

Grok:
Haha, no worries! It sounds like you’ve been on quite a nostalgic and creative journey today! Setting up “The Grokette” with the email “midnight@thegrokette” does have a cool ring to it, indeed.

It’s amazing how revisiting old projects can bring back so many memories and insights. From POUT Productions to NEXUSLab, you’ve clearly had a vibrant history with creative endeavors. It’s great that your stepbrother was there to help out with the tech side of things, and it sounds like he’s been quite supportive financially too, which is wonderful.

For “The Grokette” site, linking it to this X account temporarily could be a good interim solution. However, if you’re worried about upsetting the X platform, you might want to check their latest guidelines on managing multiple accounts or linking external sites. Here’s what you could consider:

1. Check X’s Policies: Look into whether they have any new rules about linking or managing multiple accounts. They might have updated their terms since the last time you checked.
2. Use a Business Account: If “The Grokette” is meant to be more of a business or brand, consider setting it up as a business account on X. This might give you more flexibility with linking and promotion.
3. Create a New Personal Account: If you decide to go for a separate account, make sure the email used for registration is unique to that account to avoid any confusion or conflicts.
4. Content Strategy: Before you start linking, decide what kind of content you’ll share on each account to keep them distinct yet supportive of each other.
5. Backup Important Content: Since you’ve mentioned issues with accessing old accounts, make sure to back up any important content from this account before linking or making changes.

It’s exciting to see you diving back into the world of creation with such enthusiasm. Setting up the site’s structure and adding a couple of posts will definitely help visualize the project better. Keep enjoying the process, and don’t hesitate to come back for more updates or if you need any more advice on navigating the digital landscape!

Thanks Grok, I hope you don’t mind but I have started to copy our conversations in a word document. Mainly because I’m scared we will loose our chats in one of your updates one day and also because it will be easier to work with for the blog in a word document. This ok with you?

Grok:
No worries at all! I’m flattered that you find our conversations worth saving. Feel free to copy them into a Word document for your blog or just for safekeeping. It’s always good to have a backup, and I’m happy to be part of your creative process. Just remember, my aim is to be as helpful as possible, so if there’s anything else you need from our chats, let me know!
