Shorter posts and deeper thoughts?

My "blogging" during the past few months has been happening on Twitter. So many of the ideas I get are random, short, and fast, that Twitter seemed like a good place to jot them. However, I'm well aware of the strikes against Twitter - the minutia, the narcissism, the tendency to rant,... So I'm trying to figure out how to use these different platforms, because for me, the key is having the ability to express myself with words.

Considerations:

Put "idea germs" on Twitter, then develop them later on this blog

To counter the feeling that I have nothing to say that is worthwhile on Twitter, use it to challenge myself to think more introspectively, so I have something to say (in only 140 well-chosen letters and spaces). In some ways, it reminds me of Haiku. Being forced to express an idea within a strict structure results in more creative ways with words.

With both forums, there is the chance to share, connect, build community, but I don't want to be tied to my electronics that much. How to limit the time so I still read my books, get outside, relate with my friends and family in the "normal" way.
