Post Embargoing
Monday, Jan 21, 2002
Just in case anyone (the curious reader, the occasional Yahoo! manager, etc...) should wonder how much time I spend posting at work, I'll let you in on a secret:

One of the features I put into Fury 3.2 is 'post embargoing' which lets me write a post, then specify how many seconds, minutes, hours, or days after submitting that the post should appear.

Why do I do this? Because a lot of the time I'll sit down and write, and I'll make like five substantial posts in an hour or two, and other times I'll go a day or two without posting. This way, if I'm going to be away or super-busy for a day or two, I can write up a several things on my mind and 'postpone' (pun not intended) publication of a post or two, so the posts flow freely and regular while I'm in silent-running, instead of in fits and starts.

I only bring it up so that people don't get the mistaken idea that I'm slacking and posting, when I'm actually at a doctors appointment (like this morning), or that I'm writing a huge story when I have a similarly huge deadline looming...

If you like it, please share it.
