Definitely agree about the quality vs. quantity. Thanks again and I enjoy your blog.

Thanks for stopping by, and for the compliment!

Like you and Randy (and probably many others), I wish my favorite blog authors would write more often. I sincerely believe that part of the problem may be a lack of time on the author’s part, or possibly a desire to write higher quality posts, which take more time to write. (Some people have a knack for writing really good posts on a frequent basis, but not many people can.)

Part of the problem may also be that many professionals, in particular, don’t place a high emphasis on maintaining their blogs. I hope this changes as people realize how important blogs are to keeping in touch, educating other researchers of all levels, and so forth.

Very nice post! I read many of the blogs mentioned here, but I did find a few that I hadn’t had a look at as yet – so thank you very much. I agree with Randy – I was surprised that some of the blogs that I came across do not have a consistent schedule and some had not posted in quite a few months. I was surprised, but that may be because I am a bit of a news junkie…
