PUBLIC COMMITMENT: more value-added commentary

I just got some helpful blog feedback from a trusted friend:

Chief critique is you don't have enough original content... And when you link I wish you would give more context/input/opinion around the passage.

I think he is spot-on - I'd been feeling a bit of the same thing myself. Linking to interesting content with one-liner reactions is a time-constrained (is that a euphemism for lazy?) man's way to keep up momentum, but starting now my goal is to be a bit more selective, spend more time on fewer posts and use that time to provide more value-added original commentary. A public commitment is my current enforcement mechanism of choice - I'm not ready for the next level yet. Readers, keep me to it!!
