Where’s the Middle?

Writing and maintaining a blog requires a fair amount of effort. Hence the rise of micro-blogging, which is almost frictionless (one of my favorite interface-isms), creating mountains of content, a long tail for blogging as it were.

That’s actually pretty funny, since blogging was initially the long tail of online content publishing, which was kind of the long tail of publishing in general.

Makes you wonder about how long that publishing tail really is and where you are on it.

Anyway, there has to be some tool between the blog and the micro-blog. I’m hoping Posterous can help me find it.

As the experiment continues, find the comments to let me know what you think.

Oh, and picture is unrelated, but awesome. Wish I knew the credits.

  1. The picture looks to be in the style of Josh Kirby – who did the early Prachett book covers in the UK. Can find anything on the web to back that up though.

  2. My man, you has a win! I actually have a vague recollection of watching that show. Hilarious that it's resurfaced lately. How can you argue with dinosaurs and lasers? We need them for the impending zompaclypse.
