Big BangWith the exponential growth in the amount of new bloggers worldwide each year, it seems that quality is sometimes a little bit hard to find… Blogging is being touted as a get rich quick panacea in which anybody can suddenly become an authority on anything they want and make truck loads of cash out of it. Let me say this… that is a total misconception! Read more…

What do you use to blog?

WordPressFrom my own personal experience, I haven’t found a better blogging platform than WordPress, but I thought I would find out what you think. People are still very divided on this issue and I totally understand that in essence it is just a matter of preference. So with that having been said, what do you use? I would love to hear some opinions on this… Do you feel that another platform is way better?Feel free to let me know with a comment Read more…

Why do you comment on blogs?

Your commentsI recently came across an old post by Seth Godin in which he lets his readers know that he doesn’t like having comments on his blog and therefore doesn’t have that feature enabled.  Obviously it’s his blog and he can do whatever he wants with it, but this lead me to ask the question, why do you comment on blogs? What makes you go to all the effort of filling in your name and email address and then typing out a message?

Obviously, I am all for comments and I’m going to tell you why… If you haven’t noticed already, I am quite enthusiastic about the collaborative nature of blogging and the internet in general. I enjoy the fact that when I write a post, I get feedback from the reader… I’m giving my opinion and so I welcome you to give your opinion.  If you weren’t able to comment on what someone has written in a blog, wouldn’t you feel a little bit unappreciated? 

Anyway, I just though I would share this question with you and hopefully you will let me know your opinion by adding a comment :)
