Sorry for having published a draft

August 28th, 2014

I've just unpublished it.

Yikes. You know what's a good metaphor for a draft? Someone's undressed self who in a less than fully awake state makes uncertain steps towards the toilet. That's a first draft of that person's publicly presentable self.

And publishing a draft? It's a bit like being photographed in this state. I mean, we all pass through that state every morning. Nothing to be ashamed of, then. And yet.

I think a lot of RSS aggregators never delete a published post, even if it then disappears from the up-to-date RSS stream of the original site. Bastards. Someone should spread their naked morning photos all over the internet and see how they like it.

Anyway, sorry, and the finished thing (10 times shorter without all the written-then-thrown-away bits) is coming up soon.
