212 - YouTube Is In Two Minds

212 - YouTube Is In Two Minds

YouTube has multiple personalities. One of them is the Algorithm, and one of them is the AI Inspiration tool. They work in cahoots. 

Because I change tack a lot, it still thinks I'm making doll videos. I made those because I sell collectibles and I thought the videos might support the business. They are popular and occasionally (once) someone recognises me as the presenter.

I phased out the fixing up of dolls to make my retail business leaner and meaner. 

And because I wanted to avoid more admin (at all costs), I switched topics on the channel from vintage doll retail to fine art, rather than starting afresh with a new channel.

Next year I'm thinking of narrating some of this year's blog posts to invigorate the channel. But for now, it's in two minds.

Macmillan Cancer Support

This year I challenged myself to write one blog post per day, for 365 days. The project began on 3 March 2025.

I have linked this challenge to a charity fundraiser, because I want to look outside as well as inwards and contribute to society. It also holds me accountable and adds motivation to write everyday.

Macmillan is an organistation that offers powerful help to anyone (in the UK) who has been affected by cancer.
