Trip Report Preferences?

Post by augie »

Let's say (hypothetically of course) that someone is in the process of generating a trip report. And that this person is rather, shall we say, "long winded" when composing said posts.

And it was a long trip.

And he/she has stuff such as work cutting into TR writing time.

Would you prefer to get the installments as they dribble out over a period of time, or would you rather wait and be able to read them all one right after the other?

Or do you already take sleeping medication, rendering this discussion moot?

I like the whole thing at once so I don't have to hunt for all the installments :D

I soooo appreciate people who write trip reports, so I am happy with any and all. I do like getting installments, but whatever makes you happy is the best way to write them!

My preference is for installments, with links to the older segments of the report at the top of the current installment. That way I don't have to go hunting for all of the pieces of the report.

Looking forward to reading about your adventures!

I did a post for each day. I included links for the previous posts in each post, too, for easy reference. See? http://www.virgin-islands-on-line.com/f ... hp?t=21446 It took me FOREVER to get everything posted, but it was great reliving it! Already planning next year's trip....
