Blogging

I remember reading a blog post in my early blogging days by a very prolific and consistent blogger who I think stopped posting in the last year or so did a very good public announcement about not doing comments longer than a post you are commenting on. I was so guilty of this in my early blogging days in my desire to share hints and tips of living with my kind of disability and how having carers really helped. I know commenting is a skill I’ve lost in the recent upgrades from blog site to webpage. 

But something this particular blogger instil in me, is to not comment a longer comment than the actual post. Many a time, I’ve written a lengthy comment only to reread then delete the whole thing. I guess it’s nice to give someone a bit of positive reinforcement, but you need to hope they edit or read before approving your comment on their blog. Otherwise, use their post as inspiration and write a post on your blog to link to them.
