You know what publishers of books say? They declare soft or hard cover books shouldn't be written like internet blog's content. But it time I think people will get even lazier and won't bother to read hardcore books anymore. Barbara Cartland realized this years back, and she made her paragraphs short, even containing one sentence only! She also threw out all the unnecessary dribble from the plot.
As to attention span, when people are listening to a talk, they used to hold their attention up to about 20 minutes. Now you are lucky if they hold their attention for 10 minutes!

Yes! I too thought posting very short text snippets might be an option here because people's shortened attention span closes up quickly. But I then again think it is a bad joke to only post one sentence. Quite a consciousness split indeed!
