More thoughts on blogging

I’ve been reading lots of other people’s blogs recently. It made me think a lot about this whole subject. Here are the questions I am sleeping on currently:

• Which is better: post rarely but with big, thoughtful, interesting posts or often with a couple of words, a quote, or a link?
• Does the size of the post matter? Do people come to read something long and interesting or just to see some proof that you are alive?
• Which is better: a standalone blog, like mine for example, or a collective site like Blogger.com and LiveJournal.com?
• Should blog authors stick to one language and/or style or use what exresses the point best?

There are pros and cons to each side. Poll won’t help here, though, so I am not making one…
