As blog roles get longer and longer, as posts become more in depth, as the comment threads get more sidetracked - why post anything that would take busy people away from from their busy lives for more than is required to convey a simple message?
Because sometimes people get caught up in the brilliance of their idea. They like to expound on something to the Nth degree even though the average cat only needs 3 paragraphs. C'mon it's part of being brilliant to explain things past comprehension to the point of exhaustion.
Yeah... as my blogroll gets longer - there are a few I have to wait until I have the time to read before I even look at them. Sometimes I end up being a couple of days behind the ones I'd like to read the most.
I like to keep my posts short because 1) I want to folks to read them and and 2) I don't like reading long posts my self (unless they are really really interesting) and I'm a "do unto others" type of guy.
@ NoFace - At least people got rid of those ads - the load times were killing me. I just stopped reading some blogs because they took too long to load all the music, images, videos AND commercials.
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs; "We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem; "...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression; "Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)
