Miller wrote a post yesterday in part about documenting your daily work. He quotes Jon Udell’s idea of narrating one’s work from day to day. That way your experience can help others and do something other than bounce around inside your head looking for a way out.

All to often I find myself running as fast as I can on a project or research topic and not stopping to blog about it. Sometimes I get stuck in the quandary "Is this topic too boring blog about?" vs. "Is this information too valuable as a trade secret to blog about?" In the end both my blog and readers suffer.

I think the best thing to do is to blog. Get information out there where it can have the biggest impact. Thanks to Richard for sparking that thought process.
