Couldn’t agree more. Linking to other relevant content makes blog posts even more valuable. It is also more organised. I wish more people and specially students start blogging.
But no one else does…
On top of that I feel like blogs push me to do better. Tweets have this air of low quality, high quantity, get it out fast, ephemeral, less lasting. It makes me sloppy.
And it bugs me that it’s in a walled garden, not guaranteed to last, not simply linkable etc.
I haven’t really solved the optimal thing but atm leaning to revive a blog.
