I thought it meant lurking (like searching and reading and not commenting) and was told that it meant one who picks fights on purpose! That is so NOT what I meant to do. I try not to intentionally pick fights, but if do accidentally- then I'll be the one cowering in the corner under my desk.<BR/><BR/>www.swirlgirlspearls.blogspot.comSwirl Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18241915723936809627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-393498084711103306.post-78069374141986832392008-06-15T21:42:00.000-04:002008-06-15T21:42:00.000-04:00Excellent post!

I am amazed at what a small percentage of my daily traffic translates into actual comments.<BR/><BR/>Via comments on other blogs, I've found a friend I went to high school with, a friend I went to college with, and I've become friends with a girl who lives across town from me.

Mine is a huge, bottomless pit that is constantly full of crud.. old receipts, unwrapped pieces of gum, change, etc. I need to downsize in purses. <BR/><BR/>I tell everyone about how we "met" in blogland and how cool it is.

I do appreciate it when the person writes something nice ~ so far believe it or not every comment has been nice so far...except one. That one sent shivers. It was written by someone I had not heard of and just said, "Interesting...." about my gardening. It was a man. I chose not to go to his webpage, or post his words. <BR/><BR/>I love your bag. How cool. Talk to you tomorrow.

I tend to actually blog on people's comments! I think it's my thing.<BR/><BR/>So basically, I have just recently joined the blogger world and LOVE IT (I'm in loooooove)and just don't have enough time to feed my latest obsession...THAT and that I take care of a baby and her bed is in the computer room, so any ounce of free time I might have while she's a-napping IS NOT on the computer.

I started a blog in January for my husband's family to try to stay connected and in the process discovered this whole wonderful world. There are so many interesting, and entertaining blogs I'm enjoying (and yes I now realize I'm a l-----). I'm thinking maybe I should start my own blog and see what happens. Thanks for your comments about commenting and the "L" word - there's no instruction manual out there - this is helpful.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16243946656809075755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-393498084711103306.post-76618390641657440272008-06-03T19:38:00.000-04:002008-06-03T19:38:00.000-04:00That is so funny...I think the same things...Just ...That is so funny...I think the same things...Just so you know I found you through SITS site...I hear on occation..."yeah, I read your blog..." but hmmm...no comment??

(After 12 years of ZERO contact.) It was their anniversary and she said he had come home to tell her he had found my blog. Let's just say she wasn't happy about the timing of things. But it actually turned out to be a very postive thing for all involved. And all because of my blog.... (But I hope they no longer look at mine. It's just better that way.) :)Elenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04073513719640179145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-393498084711103306.post-26309543456856776762008-06-02T20:30:00.000-04:002008-06-02T20:30:00.000-04:00I don't have any interesting comment stories, but ...I don't have any interesting comment stories, but I did want to say that I'm constantly amazed at how close I feel to my regular commenters.

EIther they "come out" eventually, or I just figure they're interested--but not that interested! I really take a lot of time considering who I want to link because every name I stick on my friends list becomes one more person I will make a commitment to check up and in on. If I don't feel a connection--I don't put the name up there. But I agree, those who take the time to leave ME comments are usually the first that I link!<BR/><BR/>I left a comment on Jennifer Paganelli's site. She's like a rockstar in the design world. And now she actually knows who I am and passes along samples of her new fabric line to me. How awesome is that?! She mostly emails me rather than comments, but boy! it makes me feel like a million bucks!<BR/><BR/>Also, I told 'new boots' how everyone was wanting to know who he was, and how much attention male bloggers get. This morning, he'd left me a comment. I went to his "blog" (just a front for commenting) and he'd already gotten 13 profile views! Hilarious!!! And btw, he really is just a friend who's become a great helper around here for lugging heavy stuff around as needed. I think he'd like to be more than a friend, but I'm not looking to go there for a long time yet. Like you asked!

I actually know many (and I used to be one) who come, peruse, and would like to leave comments, but because blogspot isn't terribly user-friendly for non-blogspot users/bloggers, they simply don't leave comments. I guess that would be one legit reason to use something like Haloscan for comments (cause then ANYBODY can easily leave a message without feeling like they have to sign up for something they don't want, just to say "hi.").<BR/><BR/>Happy Monday to you....
