Build up a buffer of draft blog posts for when you are busy and can’t blog.

Jamie,
This is good idea to reserve for future posts when we lack of time. Sometimes, we might encounter some unexpected incident may cause delay of our posting. Do you use timestamp? Don’t mind can you share your experience? thks

Working in IT support you can never manage your time, if a clients server goes down, then you need to drop everything and deal with that.
So I timestamps 90% of my posts now, if I have something new or unplanned, I will just blog it there and then.
Some more tips I did back in August
