Putting thoughts in the public domain

For me writing my thoughts on a blog is a bit intimidating. If I'm in a real live discussion and I say something -it is not written there as a constant reminder-it is a passing thing. If what I've said has not been very interesting chances are it will be forgotten in 2 minutes as soon as someone else speaks.

It is temptation to treat a blog entry like a mini essay because its up there on the screen for everyone to see. A mini essay can of course be very useful for people to read-but its time consuming for the writer and a bit anxiety provoking.
