Rui Nunes’s thoughts and ideas

I'm the Country Manager of Canalmail Portugal, the leading media group in Permission E-mail Marketing and Direct Response Strategies.

I'm focusing on e-Marketing and Web Creativity listening, reading and learning a lot. If I can provide some knowledge in exchange that would be a pleasure for me.

Do you want more quality or more regularity?

It's been a while since I post anything at my blog (since 5th July).
The cruel truth is: I'm busy! I dedicate my time to work (I run three companies) and my family.
It's the spare time that I publish something I want to share at the blog. Also, I've discovered a changing paradigm: If I want to spread something I really care to the people that follows me, I use the twitter or facebook accounts.
The blog is to have a complete and thoughtful dissertation about an issue. Or several issues.

It's was a coincidence that some of the people I follow reached the same conclusions. Loic le Meur (founder and CEO of Seesmic and Le Web conference) had a recent post about precisely that. Paraphrasing Loic and also Justin Kownacki, do you prefer to read low quality posts on regular basis or a more profound and thoughtful post on a lesser frequency?

Reading the comments on both articles and making a quick search for other similar articles, the response is almost the same: Quality is better than frequency! But most important, for me to stay passionate about writing here, I need to insert my believes in every thing I do. And I'm a strong believer that it's better to just publish things I really care about and I have something meaningful to say. It's a question of respect. Respect for you as a reader, respect for the issues I mention and also, respect for me.

So, making this clear, I'll continue to post, but just when I have the time and something I can explore, make the complete homework and expose my ideas about it.

Please, if you have something to say about this, make use of the comments section. It's there for some reason. ;-)

Posterous to Blog

This is great. I'm very happy with Posterous as a tool to blog and spread to my social networks. Why? Because it's so very simple.
If you scan my previous articles before a week a go or later my posting articles were very irregular. Sometimes I posted twice on a day, sometimes it would pass more than a week or two. 
One reason is the lack of time, but more importantly, it's the action of sending an e-mail.

We're not distracted by fancy editing functions like on Wordpress or Blogspot. It's just plain content and we focus on it.
This makes me fast and regular, with hassle free.
Thank you, Posterous team.
