I suspect that this was in part because more there were than 40 unmoderated comments by 14.45 this afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, I can\u2019t provide that schedule. My explanation was as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Blogs almost invariably come out between 7 and nine in the morning, although a few might get added later.<\/p>\n<p>Moderation is utterly unpredictable and depends on what is happening. Today I have, so far:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Published four posts<br \/>\n\u2013 Recorded 5 videos<br \/>\n\u2013 Written a 1,000 word article for The National<br \/>\n\u2013 Done a 30 minute podcast\/video for Politics Joe<br \/>\n\u2013 Moderated 40 comments here, so far<br \/>\n\u2013 Text edited two videos<br \/>\n\u2013 Had three significant phone calls<br \/>\n\u2013 Had a 25 minute snooze<\/p>\n<p>Things have to fit in as they do.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Many more comments have been moderated now.<\/p>\n<p>This is the fifth post of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Very shortly I will be back on editing.<\/p>\n<p>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.
