I would vary it. There really is no perfect length. I've actually found some of my shorter posts get the most comments.

Yeah, really it's as long as it takes. Are you reporting something? Usually it doesn't need to be as long as if you were say giving your opinions on a subject. In that case, it's as long as your opinions go :)

I like the domain name. I would make the posts as long as they need to be to get your point across. Yea, more people will read the short posts, but what is the point if the posts are short and suck? Peeps will just read it, make an opinion about your site and leave your site.

I'd say about 1000-1500px tall.

I wouldn't put any specifics on it, as long as your posts are relevant and useful it dosn't matter how long they are ...

I would say the content is much more important than the length. If there is not much to say then rambling on to make it longer will make it harder to keep the readers attention.

Most successful bloggers are very concise.

I would say it depends upon what the subject of the post is.

As said before length should be determined by what you writing rather than trying to fit one to the other. But saying thats best not to write articles unless you're aiming at that because there are lot of blogs out there and if its too long it may not get read, or read as well as you want.

Unless something is really interesting, I tend to stop reading it if I see it is long. So I guess if you write stuff that your visitors are really interested in, length won't matter at all. On that same note, if something is short, I will usually read it regardless of whether or not I find it extremely interesting.

I don't like reading if the article is just long, but if it's interesting i will read. Don't make it long just to make it long, but if you have new information in every sentence, keep on writing!
