Moderation delays

Posted on

I was asked by a commentator earlier today if I could provide a schedule as to when posts might be published here, and when moderation might take place. I suspect that this was in part because more there were than 40 unmoderated comments by 14.45 this afternoon.

Unfortunately, I can't provide that schedule. My explanation was as follows:

Blogs almost invariably come out between 7 and nine in the morning, although a few might get added later.

Moderation is utterly unpredictable and depends on what is happening. Today I have, so far:

– Published four posts
– Recorded 5 videos
– Written a 1,000 word article for The National
– Done a 30 minute podcast/video for Politics Joe
– Moderated 40 comments here, so far
– Text edited two videos
– Had three significant phone calls
– Had a 25 minute snooze

Things have to fit in as they do.

Many more comments have been moderated now.

This is the fifth post of the day.

Very shortly I will be back on editing.

And this is a quiet day, with no appointments. Moderation will probably happen until 9 tonight. I usually cover 14 hours a day, but blog and moderation activity fits around life and other work, and cannot rule either without it becoming burdensome. I hope you understand.
