Another year, another 40 or so posts. Time for a brief reflection, perhaps?
I have been writing this blog for several years now. It started as a cathartic opportunity to write on topics that interest me largely for my own pleasure (see here for my list of favourites), but fairly swiftly developed into a method for sharing interesting resources and information with clients, colleagues and the casual observer - curation, I guess in the current jargon. By nature, this has meant that the entries have become shorter, often just a short comment and a link (Twitter-like, really though I hate to admit it ;-)).
Earlier this week a casual observer, who by chance is also a rather smart cookie, complained that this means she has to go out and read the "primary source" too.
My glib answer was "yup and a good thing too - read and reflect", but this, on reflection myself, was perhaps a little harsh; as such, I am going to try to get back to writing some more editorial/commentary.
So, in the tradition of my public new year's resolutions (see here), I will try to get out at least one commentary a month in parallel to my normal regular roundup/links collation.
As many bloggers will agree, this will, I fear, be more challenging than it sounds, but I will give it a go.
Wish me luck!
