Short vs. Long Posts . . .

     I sometimes wonder to what extent the length of a blog entry dictates how much or how many people read it.  In other words, I wonder if, due to the nature of the forum, people are more inclined to read a short post than a long one. . . . Of course, I’m certain there are many other factors which have equal or greater bearing on reading all vs. part vs. none of a post – especially how well written it is and how related it is to topics with which one is familiar or finds of particular interest.
