Long and short form writing coexist here

Are long and short form writing mutually exclusive? | Poynter.: "Yet, audiences want both short and long writing, often from the same writers. While many writers walk up and down that continuum, some find that certain content demands a certain length."

'via Blog this'

ShortFormContent at Blogger is a stab at a metablog - it has short pieces that lead to long form writing here and elsewhere and pieces that are short by reason of the appropriateness of shortness to the piece. The rise of short is simply due to the growth of the literate population and the popularity of scanning as a mode of reading.

The long form items by me are included in the Blog Complex on the right hand sidebar along with a few subject blogs. In general I am seeking to create an accessible collection of thoughts and reactions under the rubric of the various subjects and works found here.
