dogtrax@Nomadwarmachine @lauraritchie @tellio I come here to find quiet, actually. Not silence, but a quieter pace to my connections and my writing. Slowing down. It's this little corner of my world that I'm still trying to figure out, through #smallstories and #thinkingsmall. I'm being conscious about not replicating my bird-site experience here. But it may not be for everyone.

I like the idea of your seeing the quieter pace of this space.
I do feel less sense of rush, more time (and space) for contemplation instead of mere reaction.
"not...for everyone" is part of the social media quandry. Staking out a net in one stream is challenge enough for many (most?). Seining from several streams is possible, but it is far more difficult to provide new stock.
Few of us are good at multi-stream management.
@Algot @Nomadwarmachine @lauraritchie @tellio Algot, I think you asked here the other day: is it ok if I update only once or twice a day? I wasn't sure of your context, but I meant to say, fine by me! I savor your posts, and that experience might lessen if there were more (if that makes sense, in a respectful kind of way)
@dogtrax @Nomadwarmachine @lauraritchie @tellio
Kevin,
Are you, at this moment, watching more than one stream?
Are you engaged with simultaneous non-stream tasks?
Is effective multi-tasking asking too much of ourselves?
I find that I prefer to focus for a while (making the word of the day post, for example) then drop that into the stream and check what's been flowing by while I was occupied. I'm not keeping two windows open side by side.
