I am well aware at the two-year mark that short, open-ended Posts often draw the most comments. And that looooong ones don’t—e.g. three for yesterday’s “Book of the Century.” Nonetheless, I’ll keep doing occasional long Posts. These mini-essays examine things I care deeply about. (Often they help me clarify my own thinking.) While they are long by Blog standards—say 500 words—they are short by Harvard Business Review standards. Doing a 500-word essay on a complex issue certainly helps me clarify my own thinking! (I appreciate your indulgence.)
