Jimi,
I echo the sentiments of the others that have left comments here. This is a great post and Erica’s point about comments is well taken. The only problem is that it looks like all of the most valuable comments were already taken! lol

Thanks for the post, I love your blog.

True that, Walter.
For some odd reason, there are those that just don’t get it, completely missing the interaction component.

Blogging is a form of interaction, without any participation, a blogger will not be able to connect with others.

Fine points you have stated here.

Wow, that a pretty amazing story. It does point out how people see what’s going on, even when you may think no one is watching. Sort of like my neighbors.

Interesting – I had a comment recently from a lady I had never seen on the blog before, so I sent her a “hello” email. Turns out she has been a fan since I started, knew every post I’d ever written (some I couldn’t even remember!) and just loved the blog.

But because she’d been a bystander, I didn’t even know she was there!

Good challenge, Robert. That’s what it’s all about.

You are so right. Most of the stuff that you read on blogs, can be found in some book somewhere, even on some website somewhere. But the thing is, you can’t right to the books author and ask a question, or get answers from other readers of the book or static website.

Blogging is just that, you get out of it what you put it.
No truer word said that, “What you sow that shall you also reap”.

Keep Blogging.

I send out a challenge to all new comers to this blog. Read through all the comments then visit the commenter’s blogs, interact with their posts, leave comments. f you do that, others will do the same to your comment you leave here, soon enough you will have loads of extra traffic.
