Bloggers Anonymous

I was reading a couple of my favorite blogs and I was struck by a couple of things. One touches on what I mentioned in a recent post. Bloggers want to be heard. Another thing I've noted is that blog readers tend to read and go. They don't like to leave comments. They remain...(insert creepy music here) ANONYMOUS! (creepy music fades out)

When you set up a blog they tell you to put a poll on your site to get participation. Ask questions in your blog and folks will answer in their comments. Well, it must not be working because I keep seeing bloggers asking people to comment and the readers rarely do. Well, as much as I'd like to hear from my readers, if they're more comfortable remaining anonymous, that's ok. After all, my kids generally read these posts because I hound them with "have you read the blog???" all the time. They know there's likely going to be a quiz... My husband - well, he will read occasionally - he knows I hate it that my blog isn't set as his homepage or something equally important and eye-catching.

I did have my first "non-family-member" comment last night. I was thrilled! Yes! "Somebody heard what I said..." Of course, my youngest son is still grieving that not a single stuffing recipe was left following my blog request. He wasn't overly thrilled by my creation and I think I heard him thank God for Stove Top that night before bed.

So hey, leave a comment, reply to a comment, or just read and go...it's all good. Bottom line...I'm glad you stop by here.

Any comments???
