This month has been productive for me in terms of blogging. I’ve never had reason to blog so much in a month and it’s quite inspiring that I still have half a dozen unfinished drafts which I can roll out over the next few days. I thought I might beat my previous monthly record but really, this has blown it out of the water. I am tempted to aim for 100 posts for the month of June but would I be putting together posts that were killer or filler? I’d never resort to the latter but I have posted over 100 posts when you take into account the other blogs that I write for.
I’d blame Twitter, BarCamp, OpenCoffee and Digital Circle for my increase in output. I’m a lot more inspired these days and can usually find myself with something to write. Saving drafts is the only way to actually keep a record of the things I want to write about even though, due to the ephemeral nature of things, they often expire in terms of relevancy before I get anywhere near them.
I also wonder how much I’d blog or tweet if I was being paid to do it. Hopefully more.
For now, this remains a labour of love – covering the subjects that I am passionate about: inspiring software, mobile content, location services, bedouin strategies, co-working facilities, Cocoa, enterpreneurship, social networking, internet everywhere and everything else that appears in my tag cloud.
Enough ruminating, I have content to write!
thats insane. I wanna know where you get the time, or do you just have nothing else to do?
🙂 Drafts drafts drafts. By daylight all I need to do is polish and publish.
It’s only 3 a day…
I’m heading the same way – I’ve decided to end my “work day” by writing a blog. I’ve a list of about 40 topics I’ve wanted to write about for a while now, finally going to start carving into that.
And for what it’s worth, I love reading what you write. Keep ’em coming!
And not only are you high on quantity, but also quality. I’ve enjoyed reading.
Thanks, guys, it’s cathartic to write, heartening to hear it’s read.
>>>I am tempted to aim for 100 posts for the month of June
Good god, don’t!! I just did my list of Contents for June and hated every frikkin day that had more than 2 posts in it. I started out with 5 a day. I’ve done multiples of that some days.
Yecch!
🙂 I deliberately stopped at 99 and saved some drafts.
