Via The Canadian Journalism Project: Slooowww is a post about "slow blogging," which has been around since at least 2006 but isn't in any hurry to impose itself.
Slow blogging has its own Slow Blog and an advocate at Oxford University Press.
I sympathize with the concept. Over at H5N1, I may post ten or twelve items in a busy day. Apart from the demands on my time, I wonder how much impact any given post may have.
But it's essentially a clipping service, and seems to be valued as such. Here and on some of my other blogs, the posts come less often. But I hope each has some useful value.
All of your blog posts are important. It may take a while for someone to get to it (as is the case here), but they're vital to the social aspect of the internet.
Just imagine what the internet would be like without the free thinking, people who post to their blogs on a regular basis.
I can't say I do it every day, but I find myself using twitter a lot. It's great because it's fast and easy.
I tend to spend most of my time working on my site http://slow-pc.com instead. I put this site together because family and friends are always asking me questions about slow pc performance issues.
Regardless of what someone's reason for putting content up on the internet, I feel it is of vital importance.
Keep writing, and I promise to stop by from time to time and read it.
Oh, and BTW, if you go to the http://ping.in site after you make a post on your blog, you can enter your blog in the site and ping other blog systems that'll pick it up. That's the best way to get your blog out.
Cheers, and please keep posting. :)
