Insomnia

I was reading the latest post on Fred's blog. It hit home for me as well. My personal problem is not that I have too many feeds to read (I prune my list regularly) but that I tend to skip anything that has any substance.

And it is only going to get worse. Apparently, blogging is dead, (many people have claimed that on blogs recently... completely missing the irony). Blog posts are too long for today's spastic readers. It's Twitter nation now. If it is more than 150 characters, you just lost most of your audience. "Smart" people don't blog anymore, they twit.

This translates in our everyday life and in our work habits too. Coincidently, I jut got an email from Fred this evening with a document to review. I read the first paragraph and I closed it. Preferring to respond to the stimuli of my Twitterific icon. This is a really bad habit.
