How I created a Google Apps jtauber@jtauber.com gmail account when I already had a Google Account called
 jtauber@jtauber.com:

1) While signed in to jtauber@jtauber.com Google Account, I created a temporary @gmail.com email address.
This effectively enabled me to alternatively log into my existing Google Account via that @gmail.com address
2) I logged out and signed up for Google Apps with username admin@jtauber.com
3) I added a 'jtauber' user under the jtauber.com Google Apps domain and gave it Super Admin privileges.
That effectively shut out my ability to log into my original Google Account with jtauber@jtauber.com but
I still can using the temporary @gmail.com address created in step 1.

I don't want to get too deep into the psychology of why I stopped blogging other than to suggest that when you don't blog for a while, it raises the bar of what you break your blogging drought with. There was one time I didn't blog for a couple of months and the next time I blogged, a friend said "I've waited months for a blog post and you post THAT!".

So to get back to putting more content on my site, I need to give myself permission to do shorter, less well-thought-out posts and not feel that every post has to be an epic article. Looking at the taxonomy above, it's clear that in the past I have made blog posts considerably shorter than informational articles.

I think there is value in distinguishing short-form and long-term posts and making enough of a separation that there is less pressure to always do long-term posts. But as well as the dimension of length, I think it also makes a lot of sense to distinguish posts which are ephemeral (or at least quite specific to the time in which they were made) from
