Being inspired

[FrogEngine]

At the right time to do the right thing is hard. I've just switched from blogger to wordpress and that has been one of the best moves ever. I normally blog when I see some good forum discussions, make a comment, and feel the need to expand a little bit further without wanting to bore those who are not interested to go into details. But most of the time the reason for blogging instead of posting is, that I want to own the content myself when I think I have something really good to say ;)

I also switched from Blogger to WordPress a while back and discovered the amazing flexibility it provides. If you are running on a Mac, I highly recommend that you download ecto, it makes the process of creating blog posts so much easier!

Hey, great suggestion here FrogEngine. I never actually thought about expanding the discussion on my own blog.

I generally try to keep the discussion going on without adding useless stuff but sometime I feel the same urge to talk about the topic somewhere else or on the forum itself. By the way, you could always "advertise" your blog by adding a small comment like, "if you are interested in the topic, go to my blog [link] where I give more details about it"

Onto the "being inspired" aspect, I generally write only when I'm inspired. It's hard for me to start from scratch because I don't feel like writing anything generally. I need the extra push to start writing, especially if I want to write some good content.
