Having fun with nanoblogging
This post ties me with my second-highest number of posts in any given month so far this year (4) but it's not just for record-setting purposes.
I love nanoblogging and all of its forms. It's great to be able to shoot off a thought on Pownce or Twitter (or both). Even Tumblr has its place for more advanced thoughts, especially those that include an image or quote. Plus, Tumblr gets all of the tweets which includes all of the pownces. What a party!
So many of my non-tech friends ask me: why? Who reads the crap you write? The honest answer is this: I don't care. I write nanoblog and microblog and macroblog posts for my own edification. Sometimes it's helpful to work out a thought in words. Sometimes I just need to clear my head. Either way, it's healthy and hey, maybe along the way the things I've learned might help someone else. Considering that I'm a teacher by training but a banker in practice, this at least gives me the opportunity to educate.
