Partly that is due to the infinite scroll of Twitter (yes, I&#8217;m still there), but partly it is the workflow for authoring on WordPress. The bar isn&#8217;t so high when I&#8217;m on a proper computer. I can open a tab, log into my site, click add a post, and get writing.<\/p>\n<p>I have been trying to provide more prompts for myself by automatically generating drafts from bookmarked items in Feedly. This gives me more of a Belshaw or Downes style blog post as a quick reply and webmention type post.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, I&#8217;d seen Keegan Wheeler do a demo where you could author by emailing (it was a cool conference session where Keegan introduced GOBLIN for faculty development).
