30 days of public posts

It’s been interesting to commit to post publicly (almost) every day in December. (I’ll be busy tomorrow, so I’m stopping today.) At first I felt like I should be posting thoughtful essays every day on engaging topics, and my posts were too slight. Then I felt like I was taking up too much space posting every day and it was good I was pointing to other people’s content.

I noticed similar concerns with posting more comments on other people’s posts, too. Did those folks want my commentary?

I wondered if I would find things to post about. Much like my monthly articles, ideas did float up as needed. It made me pay attention and focus on dreamwidth in a different way to be keeping an eye out for (public) topics. I did end up posting fewer locked rants than I might have otherwise.

So there you have it! A 30 day window into some of the things I think about.
