From [community profile] three_weeks_for_dw:

Somebody on LJ posits that a good formula for encouraging discussion and activity is the following:

- 3 weekly posts that are short on content and primarily links
- 1 post every other week that is about you or your content
- 1 post every other week that is a question gathering opinions or seeking information
- 1 post per month that is a lengthier opinion or review

And some commentary on it.

I think it's really insightful: especially the encouragement of content that isn't long and wordy and well-thought-out. I think a lot of us have been encouraged to put our shorter thoughts in shorter-form formats, like Plurk and Twitter, and people feel pressured to manufacture essay-like, meaningful content for DW. But it doesn't have to be! And I'd love to see more community activity, and activity from my reading list.

So consider this an encouragement. ♥
