How to micro blog:
First, I start with a long rambling post full of redundant information. Usually at least 3000 characters, saying the same thing 20 different ways. The more the better.
Then its time to delete almost all of it and what you’re left with should be a perfect short form blog post!
@grubz The longer I live, the more I notice I can say exactly what I intend with far fewer words than I expected. Editing is magic
@grubz It's perfectly fine to be somewhat wrong on the Internet. Microblog aren't supposed to be perfect, otherwise it defeats its purpose, low barrier to entry. Podcasts are like that too, provisional ideas, imperfect thoughts, listeners can identify with.
@renevanbelzen I'm realizing that the longer I'm here. I always had the misconception that no one wants to read anything that isn't a professional grade apa style article but that's nonsense. Writing is becoming a lot easier with that in mind!
