. I guess you might short it. It helps users to catch more information by eyes during the reading.
My site definitely needs some design help and some more thought put into it but right now i just don't have the time. I feel it is more important to keep writing regular content and the rest of the time marketing it. Some day i will do more design lol

Thanks also for your content idea generation experience. I guess some abstractive ideas are better generated when we are walking, drink a coffee etc. But content for some specific theme is better generated by tools. Am i right?
It is a lot of personal preference here. I found myself losing track of ideas during my day so I knew i had to keep a list. My list has topic ideas for months ahead of time currently so I am never out of ideas.
I actually prefer this method to using tools because I feel it is more real-world. Tools are accessed by everyone and you get people writing about the same topics over and over. My topics are almost always actual conversations I have with people

I'm in the same boat and think of ideas all the time based on problems I have solved at work, a podcast I have listened to, someone in the community I have talked to about an issue they have had. I just started this year at http://blog.thenetworknerd.com. I usually make a draft in Wordpress to save for later so I do not forget. At times I have so many ideas it is hard to pick one.
Those are good ideas! I will pay more attention when I am listening to things and reading forums! I will check out your site too

I actually get frustrated at times with the length of my commute and the fact that I could have been blogging about something during that time. I feel like that is part of the problem I have with hitting a regular cadence of more than every couple of weeks.
I think it is Evernote that allows you to do voice memos right into your notes. So while you are commuting you could talk into phone and flesh out an article and at least make some progress. Just an idea for you

@scottalanmiller lol for some reason that is Not hard to imagine

I find getting into online arguments is a great way to come up with things to write about.
So are you advocating that we should seek to be argumentative? Only for the purposes of coming up with new topics to write about, of course.

Thanks for that. I hope the voice recognition for Evernote is better than when I try to voice text someone on my iPhone. It's a good idea though.
