So, thoughts.

Blogger appears to have a "scheduled posts" option now, which means I can stuff posts as I please there and they'll appear over the course of a few days, rather than a post-dump on a single day.
Which is sort of driving me to its arms, in terms of blogging activisty stuff. Currently I use my Blogger account for my modeling, but I don't actually update much for it to really matter.
There are times when I want to make a LOT of posts (I'm talking upward of five posts, each with a pretty heavy thought) but I refrain because I don't want to overwhelm other people's f-list. And then I forget I thought about them, and I end up not writing them out, and they dribble out of my brain as quickly as they come in.
I wouldn't stop posting here, of course, but it'll be mostly the personal stuff, like random happenings at work, or What I Ate With Alicia And Elie. Now, of course, the personal is political....
However, part of blogging is taking into consideration one's audience. Just as I add you guys because I'm curious about your lives and thoughts, I assume you've added me because you're interested in stuff I have to say. Would you guys miss it if I stopped posting as much feministy-politico posts? Might you pop over to wherever I've moved, even occasionally, to check what else I've written? Or would it simply not matter as you hand it over to me as it's "my choice"? (one of the first things we learn in a writing class is that the audience matters just as much as author intention, if not much more...)
