inertia breaksIt begins: "this would be interesting to blog about." Some notes are made. Thoughts organized. In-brain sessions held, middle of the night, smoke-filled-backroom-atmospheric-like. Then nothing happens: you're too busy. Busy, busy, busy, busy. "Tomorrow," tou think. Tomorrow turns into Tomorrow again. Ideas accumulate. Things you wanted to comment on further start to become stale. Events pass you by. There's another earthquake! Grokster v. MGM is in play, and everyone talks about it, even if a decision is not expected until June or thereabouts. Services launch. Get invited to some of them, use them. Even more things to talk about. Even less time. Comments are posted, page rebuilds, and MovableType's all-seeing all-knowing configuration with its "show posts for last seven days" (which you keep forgetting to find some way around) suddenly yields an empty page. Blank. But a blank page is full of possibility too. Like a desert. And hey, Spring is here! Inertia breaks. Sort of. :) Posted by diego on March 29 2005 at 5:26 PM | TrackBack (0) Comments (please see the comments & trackback policy).
Surely there must be a way to specify "show the last N entries" instead of "show the last N days"? However, given my experiences with the bloated peice of cr*p that is MT, I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't. Regarding the posting stuff, I agree in full. My best posts are composed mentally while doing the dishes, folding laundry etc. They are promptly forgotten in front of the computer. I see a great need for a brain-computer blogging interface. For many bloggers out there, the difference would be negligible... Posted by: Gustaf Erikson at March 30, 2005 1:14 AMPost a comment
