One of the challenges I face is that I kind of try and not do the whole "drama of the week" thing, to do this I typically allow a few days to a week go by before I decide to write on a topic. The trick with that is, having to retain important pieces of information and organize them pre-emptively in anticipation of doing so. Or having access to tech to do so to get things organized. Getting those pieces together helps to create a cohesive story, the more pieces you have the better it typically turns out.
Given how frequent and fluid things happen in the modern web, I felt that perhaps the things I was doing was a bit outdated and unnecessary. Ironically, the Google and Twitter acts of "we're going to delete the stuff" basically gave me a kick in the pants to probably do more in the future.
