I've been thinking, and it sort of ties in with my other post earlier... When I'm active on the website but has nothing to do in my games, how do I make people feel that they want to go onto my blog, read it, and plus it? How do I make them remember it and make them want to come here again and again? How do I make them want to plus again and again?
So I figured, I should write something interesting, but short, and repeat. I figured maybe I should write a continuing story, that would be like a webseries, only much shorter. A few lines, maybe a hundred words. Sort of an interesting, superficial, pulp yet intriuging story, with cliffhangers and all.
I also thought of short lists of trivia. For example, every day I can give out three stupid superstitious beliefs. Or Three veriations of Murphy's law. Or three absurd moral questions (if you're in a parallel universe, is it okay to sleep with the parallel of your wife, who is married to YOUR parallel?)
And then I also thought... How about letting the readers be interactive with certain plotlines, or maybe have them pick the occupation of a character or the situation or location, and then I'll get stuck with whatever random things you guys throw at me, and will have to write some story about it. We can have a lot of fun here. What do you think?

Not to be rude, but if your future blogs are are rambly and dull as this one is, nobody will want to plus anything. However, I did plus this, but I'm just giving you my honest opinion.
valentino, obviously this is just the first one, setting up the whole concept. One of the things I write is that they need to be short. This was just an introduction. It's also a rather short blog post if you look at blogs outside of tengaged.
i plussed ya cause i think the idea is FABULOSO!! I love the way you write, very intellectual. Maybe if you add some OMG's and LOL's it will apeal to the vast majority bhahaha.. but yeah, i will definitely read and participate.
