Big or small?

Given a choice between a branded toothpaste with and without a 25% extra offer, which one would you prefer? I dont think many will go for a second thought before opting the former just because its BIG. But when it comes to reading blogs, many of you might have preferred reading smaller to bigger ones. You must have, atleast once, postponed reading a blog just because its big.

Some intelligent guy quipped that what orators lack in depth, they make up in length. I have never tried to be like that orator. I have always tried to make small blogs so that my readers will get the satisfaction of reading without giving much time reading the rubbish written by me.

But last blog was a little too big i agree. Never thought it would become this big when i started writing. Like Winston Churchill once said my blog by its very length defends itself from the risk of being read. But i can assure you that my blog doesnt call for a dictionary. It may be because gre was never my cup of tea :P

I want to know your honest opinion about this matter. Should i restrict myself to small blogs or should i not worry about the blog being big while writing? My decision will depend on your reply.

Hey, its no fun if you write stuff that people don't WANT to read. Even if the entry is long, if well written then people will read it for sure.

People buy the larger tube of toothpaste cuz they want more!! If reader's want 'more', no harm in giving it to them is there???? Unless you don't want to, just to annoy people or make posts long just to annoy them anyway...

P.S. U should ask Varmaji about getting annoyed :P

Abey! Previous post was sexy, why you trying to apologize for it?!
Write what you feel like, readers come second, if that! Just write!! :P

hoping that 'honest opinion' is not an oxymoron, i feel u shud give less importance to the length than to the fact that u must write a post a day. Its a moral obligation, you know, keeping ur readers occupied! ( im hoping you will stick to ur habit of not saying no :P )
