And he ends up writing them, too. Too much time on his hands?

I guess it would depend on what is about really. Because if I don't really care about it I either won't read it or will scan through it. I do the scanning part in tutorials to get them done quick so I have have a result :angrylooking: And short articles are quick so you can just move on with what ever your doing lol.

My opinion is it should be short but must be having a point. :)
