Small, Medium, or Large?

From fast food to t-shirts, most things in life come in three sizes. The internet is no exception… well at least for publishing platforms. Blogs are collections of long-form articles, direct transforms from their physical predecessors. At the other end of the spectrum, Twitter and other tweet-like services supply short-form messages that consist of a mere image, or a few words. And now there is Medium , a Goldilocks of a publishing platform. With the goal of quality content, Medium is attempting to blend the simplicity of a tweet with the customization of a blog, by focusing on the writing. I’m excited to see where it goes, and intrigued by the community Medium is trying to create. Having an independent publishing outlet is important to me, so I’ll continue to post to my blog . Being my first post on Medium, I look forward to its evolution, and we’ll have to wait and see if they get it just right. via: https://medium.com/on-publishing/4b0bcd7d2de
