Subtle Format Changes
- Posted by glen on November 14th, 2006
I’ve been thinking about Lifedev a lot as of late. I love writing about personal development and productivity, but the format I’ve taken is usually a longish post 3-5 times a week. While I like doing that, I also sift through a lot of news that could be helpful to anyone interested in personal development. I’ve tried posting these links via del.icio.us, but I feel like a lot of the links are worth more than just a quick blurb. SO, I’ve decided to start posting more frequently about other things found around the web that could be beneficial to the productivity hounds that frequent this blog. For example: I have a passion for new computer and web applications that are built for productivity that I haven’t really had the chance to write much about. This gives me a chance to do that. Or other useful articles written around the web. Instead of this being just my thoughts on productivity and personal development, it will be a hub for all things productivity.
Now I now that I’ve said that bloggers shouldn’t just regurgitate the news, and I won’t be. You’ll still have my commentary, (like it or not). The “feature” length articles aren’t going away any time soon either. This is a way to provide more of a service to you guys.
And please let me know what you think via the comments below. I read the comments and try to respond to every one, so know that you’ll be heard.
Thanks for reading!

Great idea Glen. That is the direction I have been moving with my blog (http://patrickrhone.com) by doing regular posts of remaindered links with short commentary.
I have very much enjoyed your all of your posts and am looking forward to seeing even more. Thanks for your continued service to the “Org-Fu” community.

I’m a fan of point form so even where there is something I may not be interested in, I may get the information. At the end of posts, sum it up with some bulletin points. Not every single post has to be a behemoth, once a week is fine, with smaller entries throughout the week more than enough.

I think its a good direction as long as you combine the longer thought pieces with the cool things I found pieces. I’m guilty of the opposite with my blog, burnertrouble.com- too many found somewhere pieces.
You’ve inspired me to get more longer things mixed in.

Evan,
I’ll try to do that, at least sum things up for the most part.
Martin,
Yeah, the staples will still be the longer pieces, with about 3-5 of ‘em a week.
