I think I've finally figured out one of the questions I need to ask in order to work through the next project bit I need to do:

So, you've loaded the update page and you are about to write an entry. What steps, and in what order, do you do it in?

For instance, for me it's:

1. Pick journal to post to.
2. Write entry.
3. Pick subject.
4. Add tags.
5. Change comment settings if necessary.
6. Pick security level if other than default.
7. Preview, if there's anything more complicated than a few links.
8. Hit post.
9. Immediately view entry to make sure it isn't fucked.

(You'll notice the lack of 'pick icon' or 'add mood/music' -- I never do.)

What's yours?

  1. Write entry and subject. Sometimes one flows from the other, sometimes the other way around, mostly coding as I go

  2. Read through, checking code in particular

  3. tag

  4. Choose icon

  5. add mood/music

  6. Pick security level if other than default

  7. Remember to check I am posting to the right journal/comm (sometimes I forget this step, with hilarious results)

  8. Preview, if there's anything more complicated than a few links

  9. Hit post.

  10. Immediately view entry to make sure it isn't fucked

  11. Edit the inevitable fuckedness

  12. Go to LJ and re-f-lock if the post here is public


That's quite complicated, isn't it?
