Quick Tip: Why Bother?

Posted on June 27th in Quick — 6 Comments so far. Got something to say?

I’ve added this new category, “Quick” to store these asides like posts.

Today while walking home from a productive discus throwing session at a close by park, I noticed bags full of dog droppings (didn’t feel like going for an awesome euphemism) lying on the ground in an alley way I take as a short cut. Why bother picking it up if you’re just going to drop it on the ground anyways?

But how can this possibly relate to blogging in any way? Think about the act that these poor, probably very dumb people committed. When blogging, one way to sky rocket your growth is to just cut the fluff. Pure, unadulterated, awesome content always wins over good content with fluff every time. If you think about the post, and reflect, “does anyone care? Do I even care?” maybe hold that post back ;)

    You’re absolutely right. I think a blogger score higher by just being him self.
