Well, I have been a good little noder for the past 2 days, fixing my speeling mistakes, citing sources, doing research for nodes, following all those DO's and DON'Ts.
I have now decided what I want to use E2 for. I don't want it to be an agony column where I whinge about my life or a soapbox to rant about my largely inconsequential views on subjects that I know little about (I am not accusing anyone of doing this, by the way). I am going to use it to improve my writing, spelling and knowledge by researching for factual nodes.
It does seem that I have become addicted to this site far too easily. I am going to have to try to cut down a bit and get some work done.
