Why Not to Post to My Blog Late at Night

Posted by Ellie Mirman

1. I can become incoherent late at night.  I make typos, spelling and grammar erros, and generally make a lot less sense.  (Case in point.)

2. I am more likely to post something I regret in the morning.  Something embarrassing.  Not work appropriate (and this blog is rather visible at work, so better watch out about that).

3. I become somewhat thoughtful late at night, thinking through my day, thinking through my life... this leads to more incoherent babbling that probably only makes sense to me, and even when it makes sense to others, they don't care.  (Case in point, yet again.)

4. A supposedly real reason not to post blog articles late at night is that they may get less visibility.  Somewhat less of an issue for me right now.  I'm pretty sure I know 90% of my readers, and the other 10% just come by to read one or two articles and then move along.

5. I become repetitive and post pointless articles, such as this one.  Also, I am a lot less likely to read over my posts to avoid errors such as these.

I break my own rules I guess.
