I need to get back to this blogging thing. In the past few months my tweeting has increased by a completely-made-up 47%, but I haven’t blogged at all. Twitter is awesome for finding (or telling others about) things to read, but as far as writing goes, it mostly limits you to little thoughts. I want to think big thoughts. Thoughts that necessitate entire blog posts, even entire series of blog posts.
Historically, the people I’ve respected most have been people who write stuff on the Internet. My thinking and communication has never matched the clarity and conviction of the people who posted to the e-mail lists I lurked on in the late 90s. If I exercise the blogging muscle enough, perhaps it will.
