Writing some good words or a solid opinion is good, but blogging is about linking to other good, original content which takes your reader to some of the sources of your opinion, and linking takes time. When I write for my blogs, it takes almost as much or more time adding relevant and important links as it does to write the actual post. It's also not just the writing that takes the time.

I used to pump it out pretty well on my personal blog, but finding it more difficult as my time gets more limited and my tweets increase. I think the easiest way to do it is find or take a picture of something everyday that's out of the ordinary, and then apply the original significance of it to whatever you're interested in. For me it's business and marketing. Or I guess by expanding on your 140 character tweets could work as well.

I know a few bloggers who still crank out 10-12 posts a DAY. I'm way off my 3-5 a day level. But Twitter and Posterous has taken the place of a lot of those posts. Maybe it's making blogging easier.
