Well, I hope to use this space to jot down whatever ideas I’m in the middle of thinking about, as soon as they coalesce enough to put words to.
Why? I’ve always gained very much from a peek at or listening to the half-formed ideas of people I’m working and talking with. It would be nice to return the favour. Or at least, have a try.
As someone said a few years back when talking about Directories of Good Practice (much in vogue at the time) “what we really need is a Directory of Half-baked Practice”. Not ‘half-baked’ as in half-baked, but as in ‘not fully baked’, since once something’s attained the status of Good Practice, it’s more than likely to be pretty much past its sell-by date. This was said well before the advent of internet-time, by the way.
The time to engage with new ideas is when they’re half-formed. That’s when they’re interesting, and when you can contribute something too.
