does anyone read them? just wondering since i was gonna post the 2nd half to mine but since i got 0 comments, didn't. Anyone want to support a blogger?

[Nameless]

I've been responding to some blog posts I found interesting or thought-provoking in some way. Most people have interesting things to say. Also, no comments doesn't mean no-one reads your blog, post anyway.

Well there isn't a "views" counter or anything so i just assumed my blog isn't worth reading to the general public here.... :(

[Generation ABXY]

If I find the person to be interesting enough, yeah, I click over to their blog and see what they've rambled on about there. I usually don't leave a comment either, though.

[Xerxes]

Sometimes I miss getting comments. But I'll blog.

Don't blog to have others read it. If you want others to respond, make a thread and start a discussion. People have started threads over the most personal inane shit, no reason why you can't do it yourself ;). If you blog, do it for yourself. Visualize it as a conduit of your thoughts, not merely your opinions.

I like feedback. It motivates me for my next write up.

Agreed. Doing my blog, I was hoping to get more criticism on my writing, but that doesn't really happen. Still I have been using mine to help me evolve my writing style and I think it is working.

If it makes you feel any better, I will read your blog. I read every blog post. The thing about the comments is that there are very few comments on any of the blogs. Many times I have seen that I am responsible for half of the recent comments and most of those were from the previous night.

And now is the time for me to say: This.

And Kielaran is a nice guy.

Don't blog to have others read it. If you want others to respond, make a thread and start a discussion. ... If you blog, do it for yourself.Word. I blog because I just want to post shit, not caring if others read it, and I firmly believe that's the reason why someone should blog. Though, for the record, I do read most blog posts.

[civil]

On a totally unrelated note - Jeffool, didn't your signature at EvAv used to read:

You're read Jeffool the post, now read Jeffool the blog? That seemed cleverly funny to me.

Sorry I notice such things. :o

[Jeffool]

... I thought I'd typed the same thing.. Wow! Let this be a lesson to you all, I don't know what the fuck I'm typing here. I'm banging the keyboard on random parts of my body and whatever happens, stays. (Thanks civvy!)

[civil]

:o

Thanks civil. The blogs always interest me and they are far easier to keep up on compared to the 50 thread that are made every day.:)

We don't like reading your posts in threads...now you are torturing us with blogs?? Are you mad? ;)

[violent]

I only post on my blog when I'm drunk.

[digitalErich]

I posted a comment on your blog, but it was a vague threat, which is probably not the type of feedback you're looking for.

[crazyD]

I made one blog entry, and got like 50 comments. Flooded my inbox with notifications. Maybe you are better off without?

As opposed to Santa here, who posts a blog saying it will be a running thought than not continuing it at all. (Write more spousal gaming stuff Santa!)

I only post on my blog when I'm not busy doing Ghostbear's mom... :)

I'll be the first to admit, it warrants enough free time.

oh no you didn't! :D

I wouldn't be discouraged. I was disappointed by lack of comments on my music blog (link in sig) but I went ahead and put a little code to track the traffic going to it and was surprised to find that I'm getting several hundred hits a week (that aren't me), so just because people aren't commenting, it doesn't mean people aren't reading.

There's a REALLY GOOD CHANCE, that traffic is spam bots looking for unauthenticated posting abilities. Not to knock you down a notch, but it's true.

Nah, you can track their individual IP's and see how they got to your site. I had done minimal promotion through MySpace and Twitter and stuff, there were a lot of people coming through Google searches and stuff though and lately bands have been throwing the link around after I review them and stuff. It's really neat to look at all the stuff.

Well maybe it's just me then. I attract SPAM :) I needed askismet to handle most of it for me since I liked running an open blog and moderating all the posts. I don't do the blog anymore, but the site is there for my next big thing (or lack there of! It's a secret!)

[Dukefrukem]

yay comments. and i can see people are hoping for titles to make the top 5 :)

[KingGorilla]

I think we need a more prominent way to show the blog. With 1Up as an Analog, if you click on a person's avatar, boom, right to the blog.

[JRR006]

My blog would probably be a very long, critical examination of sexuality in the Metal Gear series. You see why I refrain?

LOL, too true.

no it was good. :)
