The blog world is full of debates about whether it’s better to show more or less content on the front page or in RSS feeds. Right now, I usually cut off posts after a paragraph or two, so that you can see more posts on the front page. And on the RSS feed, for those using Google Reader or another reader, it automatically does the same thing.

I’d welcome your opinions about whether I should show more or less. For those of you who read on the Web, do you like the lengths of the summaries? For those who use RSS, do you want the whole articles or does it make your reader less cluttered to have the entire, potentially long, post?

Update: Based on the feedback, I’ve changed the RSS feed to show the entire posts (and also a comment link, since comments are always welcome!)
