Alright, so I’m beginning a bit of an experiment here, my thoughts being this: short-form publishing, be it status updates, tweets or otherwise, are, at best, partial thoughts, opinions and insights, but too often, they’re stripped of context and meaning for brevity’s sake — and what you’re left with is, well, an empty candy shell without the yummy chocolaty filling. And on the flip side, long-form publishing, like this here blog, just requires a level of attention and time — mine and yours — so, net-net, a double-tax for both of us. So, this experiment asks: is there a yet to be used middle between the macro and the micro publishing models? I really have no idea, let’s find out…

I like this idea. Watching the experiment with interest.

This is kind of what you see happening on FriendFeed. Of course it’s also kind of what blogging started off like WAY back in the day. Personally Mike, I’ll take any kind of blogging I can get from you. Whatever works for you man.
