As some people may realize I sometimes put posts out hurried.

But this is often not the case. In fact I rather do a lot of research to come to a final post.

Case in point I am preparing a fracking post soon. I have been reading up on new efforts prior to choosing what to write, what links to include, and which method to write it in.

http://fracfocus.org/chemical-use/what-chemicals-are-used is a chemical list. I got that page from http://fuelfix.com/blog/2012/07/03/fracking-chemicals-aren%E2%80%99t-hard-to-find-in-your-home/#6120-3

I also of interest to me is http://www.truthlandmovie.com/ where a movie was actually made of fracking.

Now I know from experience that roughly twenty to thirty people will read, but only specific people will post (I can even commonly name them in advance to myself) in response. For instance I know commonly Chris will read but not reply to my posts but sit and wait for specific people to post and mattering on their content choose to post.

So my post will be designed for both the hidden audience and the active repliers.

More research is desired, though I have pretty extensively researched the topic in the past.

Making a post is an art. You only have so much space to get attention, then retaining it is difficult as well with to much 'spacer' material. You have, or rather I have to, to keep attention via making content tug at an emotion.

In the coming post I would probably avoid the movie. Seems to me most would yawn and walk away. The food comparisons part however seems a great comparison tool.

Then I need to know how many topics are active, who is active at the moment, how many topics I plan to introduce, and decide to be short and to the point, insanely short, medium, or go for a long post. On a rare occassion I have done an epic post such as my challenge to Xeno.

So I process the info and make my decisions. Well researched, decide length, style, and direction, then throw it together.

On a rare occassion I take a week to write a post, seeking exactly the right words as I make a post designed to make people read, understand, and leave little space left. Recently my posts on drugs have been of that nature.

Anyhow just showing my methods and thought processes.
