They used to call it Web Surfing. I&#8217;ll follow any number of things that strike my fancy. The other day I was on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/profile?viewProfile=&amp;key=13239721&amp;trk=tab_pro\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn<\/a>, looking at the other peoples blogs.<\/p>\n<p>I stopped at a couple and read a post or two. I even registered and commented on one. I like to comment on the posts that I like. Comments are good <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lillicotch.com\/Blog\/?s=comments+blog\">for your blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Then I came on one that just stopped me in my tracks.<\/p>\n<p>This blog had a fairly recent last post where they apologized for not posting much and they promised to do better. I would just write more and forget the apology, but not a big deal. Let&#8217;s hope they do.<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the post went on and on about how they didn&#8217;t like to write, it was too hard to have perfect grammar, the sun was in their eyes. OK the sun excuse wasn&#8217;t there, but I probably won&#8217;t return to this site.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the deal with blogs, if you don&#8217;t want to write, don&#8217;t have one. A <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lillicotch.com\/Blog\/?s=stale+blog\">stale blog<\/a> is worse than none at all.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to have one, just write something, then write more. The wining may have been worse than nothing, but maybe not. Anyway, write what you like, about what you like and don&#8217;t worry at all about perfect grammar.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing is better to promote your site. If you are lucky enough to have good comments, even better. Listen to your commenters and reply to good ones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I like to aimlessly wonder around the web. They used to call it Web Surfing.
