Stephen Downes, on finding the time to write online by focusing on using content from a closed environment and bringing it into the open.

  • The whole point isn't to *add* online writing on top of everything else you do. Nobody has time for that.

    Rather, what you want to be thinking of doing is to gradually migrate to writing online *instead* of writing for those other purposes.

    That doesn't mean you become a blog writer and nothing else. Rather, what you'll find is that writing for the website makes writing for all those other things a lot easier.
  • The idea is to take the stuff you do for private audiences and to present it (as much as you can) to public audiences.
