A learning for me in the last year is that threading/tweetstorming in the form practiced on twitter is *very* different from the idea of post-series content on blogs or learning sequences in lesswrong style. A thread is an improvised push sequence, the others are outcome-pulls.

Tunneling down a named bunnytrail, trailing a string that unspools from the trailhead... that's the mental model. You can't push on a string, you but you can drag one along behind you. A traditional blog series otoh has a rough arc planned out in advance with a sense of terminus.

Interestingly, the term 'sutra' as in kamasutra means thread. In hindi/sanskrit, the term "sutradhar" means "thread bearer" or "thread steward". In Indian theater, that's often a narrator role who breaks the fourth wall.
