Q. What is zomblog?
A. zomblog is the blog associated with the site zombietime.

Q. How are zomblog posts different from zombietime reports?
A. zomblog posts are either single photos, or short reports on small events, generally of a political nature. zombietime reports are usually much larger and feature dozens of photos. Basically, if I photograph an event which I later feel doesn’t merit a full zombietime report because it was too small or because I only got a handful of photos, then it will end up at zomblog. On a day-by-day basis, zomblog will be the place where I post unique photos that aren’t part of a larger story.

Q. Will zomblog be like other blogs, in which you will discuss and post links to articles about current events?
A. No. There are already plenty of blogs that analyze the day’s news. zomblog will consist exclusively of “original content” — photos (and accompanying newsworthy observations) that originated with me.

Q. Who are you?
A. My identity is not important. I choose to remain anonymous.

Q. Why doesn’t zomblog have this or that standard blog-feature that everybody else has (rss feeds, category tags, a blogroll, advertisements, etc.)?
A. Three possible reasons. Firstly, this is a new blog, and I’m still slowly improving the design, so perhaps the feature you seek will be added eventually. Secondly, I’m not very tech-savvy, and if some feature requires specialty knowledge to implement, then I’ll probably shy away from it. And lastly, I purposely choose to keep zomblog minimalistic, so I will try to cut down on any extraneous features. As with the main zombietime site, what’s important is the content, not the design, so I don’t want to distract from the pictures with a lot of bells and whistles.

Q. How frequently will you make posts?
A. More frequently than at zombietime, but less frequently than the type of blogs which keep on top of breaking news. I’ll try to post one new picture per day, but I can’t promise I’ll keep that schedule.
