Lowering the bar

I have another post sitting in the dock, but I can't really release it because I need to think about it a bit more. I've been trying to lower the bar yet again so that I can produce some shorter things, but I still don't want to put out things that are wrong!

Fred Wilson at AVC https://avc.com/2020/07/short-and-sweet/ has posted about how he has been getting shorter with his blog.




If shorter is good enough for Fred, it's good enough for me.

Short content seems like Twitter. I just am not finding Twitter rewarding lately. It seems like the Cultural Revolution on there, just people spitting at each other. Not pleasant in any way. I was trying to keep a list of just silly funny stuff in my approach to using lists as the way to consume Twitter, and only following people I know personally and am thus less likely to be sickened by. I just can't stick to it properly and keep following people.

Anyway, things are so ugly on Twitter I don't even feel like linking up these posts there.
