Using “Re:” in blog titles by Ruben Schade, 11 April 2025:
These are worth reading, but I wanted specifically to call out the syntactic choice Brandon made in his post responding to Jason:
It’s simple, but it hit me just how succinct it is, and how much information it conveys. It’s treating blogging more like a conversation, not unlike an email. I love this.
I think I've said it before, but I do like the blogosphere or indieweb tradition of replying to other people's posts by writing a post of your own. Adding 'Re:' to the post title just makes it even clearer, and looks good in feed readers.
