Tweaking the ‘Grok!

by

Every day, we have published at least eleven new pieces (one every 90 minutes) between 6:30 am and 9:30 pm, every day, for what feels like a long time. That’s a lot of content. Well, I’m changing it.

Effective yesterday, the new schedule is every two hours, beginning at 6 am and ending at 10 pm. The change means nine new posts every day instead of eleven.

We’ll still add breaking news when we can and any other content that needs to pop in here and there (or just because we feel like it), but the new default will be nine posts, one every two hours, beginning at 6 am.

Why?

Speaking for myself, I’d like to write “better.”

Without the time to focus on making the content more interesting or unique, it begins to get a rushed cut and past feel, and I’m Not Lovin’ it, and since this is a hobby, I need to be loving it.

Everyone has a tone or a “sound” to their work, and I think mine’s getting lost in the business side of being a prominent media source (which we still are), trying to keep a promise, so…I’m adjusting things a tiny bit to try and make a little more room.

Summarized: I hope to exchange a little quantity for better quality: small changes, and maybe, at least once and while, better results.

So, that’s the plan today. It is subject to change based on circumstances, but I wanted folks to know what’s up. Oh, and a reminder: GrokMeet in Concord on May 14th, 6-8 pm ET, Area 23 Pub in Concord.

We hope to see you there.
