2 Minute Posts

I don't know if I will get time so will have to manage with a micro post today. 


In any case  that is what we all have time  for today, after macro demands on time and attention.

As a professional, I was shocked a few years ago when a client wanted to transform an 180 hour training to eLearning. He wanted to keep it in chunks of 3-hour sessions. We took a few weeks to convince him to try 45 minute modules.

Now we create 2-minute  microlearnings. Because according to studies that is the amount of information users can digest at a time, now.

Stories are told in 100 words (Hemmingway wrote a classic in six words) and social media tornadoes are brewed in 140 characters.

There is a message here for bloggers like me. Or a really good excuse.

    1. It works, doesn't it. When there is no time to write but a promise to live upto, we write micro-posts.
      Will check out yours tomorrow. Didnt get the chance in the last few days.
