With more posts, you only need to read a few posts back to learn what something is all about. And with more posts, you don't need to write as much to catch up readers. I imagine that's one of the reason I blog slack. Too much background information I tell myself I need to include. Many times I've started posts, containing a bunch of background, and get ill of them because I'd not even reached the meat of the post yet. That's one thing I really like about the Twitter approach. With no room to post anything, you can't dwell. If you have something to say, you say it, and you're done. It can also be a problem of context.

"New" PuffBOMB as a project ran in such an odd way, that it really does feel odd to just start where it stands. I'd like to, and plan to do more here, but I don't feel it's ready to be promoted just yet. Once it gets past it's current hurdle (milestone), and for post PuffBOMB projects, I could see the blog playing a more significant role. But since the project was started and mostly developed in secrecy, it doesn't seem right yet. As for when, perpetually only a month away. :) Zaphos> Use it as an instrument is music software.
