SS got me rolling, so I’m grateful for it and sites like it—you were one of the first SS participants to comment on my site, btw—but I rail against the same things you do. It <strong><em>is</em></strong> exasperating, and yet I keep banging my head against the blogging wall knowing it’s not giving me the experience I want. I’ve got a lot to work out regarding the whole blogging thing so I really appreciated reading your viewpoint. Never a disappointment here : )missalisterhttp://missalister.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361281865338727324.post-21597472238836777082009-09-19T14:32:51.403-07:002009-09-19T14:32:51.403-07:00I am glad that some people get it.

I get excited when someone actually reads and enjoys my blog but don't need my ego stroked by the drive by bloggers.myrtle beached whalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18338457419555984753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361281865338727324.post-28835155073122026232009-09-19T13:59:27.972-07:002009-09-19T13:59:27.972-07:00Thank you for writing this.

There was a time when I would routinely leave a trite comment with every contributor to Sunday Scribblings (for example). But I don't any more. I visit people whom I know will entertain or enlighten me and I don't always comment. Ok, my personal blog ranking has fallen through the floor, but those who do read my humble posts do so because they genuinely want to read my words, and not to fuel any hidden agenda.keiths ramblingshttp://myrtlebeachramblings.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361281865338727324.post-5616144300584764972009-09-17T20:51:53.902-07:002009-09-17T20:51:53.902-07:00You speak the truth, Whale.

I found myself becoming a comment whore, but truth even if that was the initial motivation to read other blogs, I have benefitted by finding a number of decent writers.Monkey Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06741294113777908130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361281865338727324.post-58780760834371523632009-09-09T07:19:53.461-07:002009-09-09T07:19:53.461-07:00I am humbled that you follow me.I am humbled that you follow me.myrtle beached whalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18338457419555984753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361281865338727324.post-63655901606774680362009-09-09T04:13:18.150-07:002009-09-09T04:13:18.150-07:00I've been reading your blog regularly ever sin...I've been reading your blog regularly ever since I came across it. I used to leave comments, too... but stopped because I ended up saying the same ol' boring same ol' = "You're so funny" "you write so well" (and the blame for my lack of commenting originality lies squarely with you, by the way) :) <br /><br />I do really enjoy your writing, and also your ingenuity in sourcing the photos you use to illustrate your posts.

Glad you are up and at 'em. Looking forward to more great ideas such as taping money to your forehead. Now, where does one get the money?
