Alejandro Reyes / Nov 20 09 at 12:53 pmThe blog post length is determined by the idea itself. Here you sum it up really well.
Jonathan Frei / Nov 20 09 at 4:06 pmgood stuff. Few people when they’re reading online finish whole posts, so if you can keep your thoughts short and to the point, you’ll have captured more of the readers attention then if they scan the first paragraph and the headers.
Nate / Nov 20 09 at 4:27 pmI’m with you 100%. I need to remind myself of this sometimes.

Ton / Nov 20 09 at 7:38 pmIt’s quite common for people to not finish the whole post/news article these days.
Keep hitting the point + nice flow of language = WIN
