I'll try to go concise except for the subjects that actually _require_ a longer treatment. And, that way, I think I can lower my own barrier to writing, which will also help in getting my thoughts down in writing, and will let me share more information. Thanks for the note!!

Like you say, once you are in the mood, those articles get longer and longer and before you know it it took 2 days to get it ready to publish. Exactly the reason I have tried to start a blog 5 times and never succeeded :) I heard the secret is to force yourself to be shorter (more concise). For example, this post could have been made into 4 parts and posted over a week it would seem like you post alomost bi-daily. And than keep those longish pieces for every 3-4 weeks. Sounds like good advice ... if I would have taken it I would have had a blog for two years now :) Good luck trying The reason other ppl post way more often is because they don’t try to make their posts too long.
