Yeah - the intention was to write a little bit every day or so, but I needed to quantify it to keep myself honest and track progress. I guess I could have said "write 20 things this month" or something similar.
(First, thank you so much for the Beeminder plug! This is a big day for us, thanks to you!)
I like just forcing blog posts to happen on a reasonable schedule. Like tomorrow is an "emergency blog post day" for us on http://blog.beeminder.com
I also think having the thumbnail in the sidebar like that makes for a nice "ETA till next post" for your readers. And there are a couple ways to automate sending the +1 to Beeminder each time you write a post.
PS: Another more explicit example of the "ETA To Next Post" thing: http://daily.muflax.com/ (Looks like they burned out on blogging there for a while but are committing to get a post out 20 days from now...)
