Darren Draper writes, "I see Will's abandonment of traditional blogging as a clear marker for the beginning of the end of long-form educational blogging." What am I, chopped liver? Yes, I've always preferred the short form here on OLDaily, but I will no doubt continue to write a steady stream of articles on my blog. Look, it really goes to motivation. When blogging was 'popular' it was flooded with marketers and consultants. But if you're trying to keep a channel of communication open to support your consulting business or book sales, then long-form blogging isn't going to do it for you. But if you have a desire to explore and talk about a subject of interest, then blogging is a good forum.
