comments

I have decided as of today that I am going to make more comments on blogs.  I read Caesar's rant about the lack of comments, and totally agree with him.  The thumbs up and down was a nuisance sometimes, but at least it said "I read your blog, I liked/hated it".  Sigh, the complaints about the thumbs down fairy got doodi to take it off.  Poor doodi.  He can't win for losing. 

Now, I am guilty of NOT reading the front page very often.  I see a lot of it before it goes up cuz I am in press & writers guild.  Therefore, I am aware of most of the stuff before it even goes up.  But, I do read blogs a fair amount, but usually don't make comments unless I know the person.  That is now changing!  I luv comments!  It shows an appreciation and maybe even a respect for the writer.  I know people that just say "good luck with that" or "Grats" or whatever short comment is appropriate with every blog they read.  That is a good thing!  Comments are always welcome, good or bad.  It starts a discussion.  It validates what the person wrote.  There are many reasons to leave a comment, even when the writer didn't say much, just venting or declaring life is good!  It makes us feel more like a community.  It shows you care, or not!  It supports a person and makes them feel good.  What?  Don't we all hang together?  On this site, anyways.  I know, we all have our own clans, and the site has gotten huge.  And the stuff that goes on in clan forums is soooo much fun.  But, after it's all said and done, I am just going to start commenting much more, and hope y'all will do the same.

That's all.
