Ah the "what should have been a blog post as a series of 50 tweets" format, not my favourite publishing mechanism.

Sorry. I've got ADHD, so that's really the only way I can usually do these things.

I'm planning to videoify it in the future, if that's more your style.

Don't apologise. Stick with what works for you. Sharing the fun is the most important part, regardless of your choice of platform.

I like this format. There is always things like Thread Reader to read it "long format". Eg [1] is your thread in one page.

Sometimes I write a blog then sit on it for ages and never actually publish it because writing a blog is such a grand ordeal. If this format helps people ‘just get it done’ then I’m for it.

Now I'm thinking of a word processor that accepts tweets as input and stitches them together into a more seamless blog post style document.

There are definitely services that just do a basic stitching so that it reads like a giant paragraph but it would be neat to see it truely translate from a tweet thread to a blog format beyond just a basic concatenation

Terrific if you think in 280 character paragraphs.
