(Slightly off-topic) I said this on twitter, but just realized that I never said it here ( > 140 chars this time): Daniel, your blog is great! It has quickly moved on to my "must read" list. I don't know how you do it every day, between your own thoughts and the curation of so many others' great content, too. I may not understand everything and it may not all apply to me, but believe me, enough of it does. Fellow Hacker Newsers should definitely bookmark you. I also have a hard time understanding how someone could have such a high quality daily blog and get much else done. I struggle to post once or twice a month. Keep it up. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed and are really appreciated.

I agree. Daniel consistently puts out rich, interesting and educating posts, enough so that I was just about to make my own comment stating so before I noticed yours.

Thanks! :-) I also have a hard time understanding how someone could have such a high quality daily blog and get much else done. I struggle to post once or twice a month. I'm not quite sure how I do it either! I think there's a certain rhythm that comes out of writing something every day. It's like the anecdote about the pottery teacher who asked graded half his class on the weight of the pots... the more you do, the easier it gets to keep on doing it. Unfortunately this last week I haven't quite kept to my daily rhythm... but I've got 2 more articles in the queue now, so the rest of this week is covered. :-) Perhaps worth also noting that these days I wake up around 5-6am, and my first priority is usually to get a blog post written. That might take an hour or two, then I get on with my day...
