Revamped Website

By Matt Baer

Just revamped the Musing Studio website. My goals were to focus more on our current products, to accurately show where we are right now, and to present our suite of tools as a cohesive solution for creative people.

First, you’ll notice how we showcase Write.as. This is really where everything starts in the suite, and I imagine a Write.as account eventually becoming synonymous with a Musing Studio account in the future — so this should hopefully make that clearer.

I’ve removed many of our planned products for now. We’ll still get there, but I personally need to feel less pressure to constantly build as quickly as possible. So I hope this will help with that.

Beyond that, I wanted to sum up our products into a single over-archiving idea — web publishing for artists — and mention how that ties into other ideas we advocate for, like privacy and democracy. You’ll find that on our about page.

Finally, I wanted to make it clear how we run — that it’s basically just me, Matt (hi! 👋) — and to set expectations for development. For now, that means getting rid of a concrete roadmap for a few months while I clear major obligations off my plate, so I can be more responsive to our most pressing issues with the product and service.

You’ll notice this site becoming more of the “hub” for everything I’m building, and a great resource to find where we are today and where we’re headed. Any thoughts? Discuss... on Remark.as.
