Interesting. Over on my Wordpress blog, Bing has now crawled deeper into the posts on there and updated the search results. This week I got my first search hits from Duckduckgo and Qwant which both use Bing.

From my experience, you really have to immerse yourself in micro.blog for a month before you start understanding it’s features and the community. Even then, MB is deeper and more subtle than you think after that month.

My approach to long form blogging: 1. try not to sound like a moron, 2. quit trying to write like a journalist, 3. write like I would in a forum post, 4. try not to sound like a moron, 5. I am letting people in on my current thinking on a topic which may not be consistant with my past thinking or future thinking on the same topic, 6. occasionally use commas, 7. try not to sound like a moron. I don’t always succeed.
