Mark, I read both styles and I (obviously) prefer the lengthy one Partly because I hardly ever write posts under 1000 words myself, but more because I believe that slow consumption is an easy to give complement to someone who is willing to take the time and write down his thoughts so that others can read them again.
Fast injection leads to the headlines we find on TechMeme every day. Lots of echo and very little information or food for thought.
But a blog writer that takes you along on a journey of his thoughts, questions, observations, those are my favorites. It makes you stop and think. I'm not necessarily looking for answers. It's even better if I get more questions, if I'm left to think what I feel about it. And that is often what blogging is about to me.
Good article, I enjoyed reading it

Hello MeghnaK! Yes, it is always the readers' decision as to whether or not to read something. However, I'm suggesting that it can also be rewarding to try to read something that might not be simple or easy to read.

This indeed is a great post. But as I understand, I slightly disagree on some aspects.
As it is not microblogging like twitter etc., every blogger has the option to expand the article and put forward all that is to be said before hi/her readers in detail (if need be) and it is for the readers to decide whether they have the time, aptitude, requirement and patience to go through the lengthy post.
Thank you for sharing!
