Comments on: Thoughtful Thursday – Frequency & Dilution http://geekmommy.wordpress.com/2008/08/21/thoughtful-thursday-frequency-dilution/ I'm a geek. I'm past 40. I'm mom to a preschooler. It's always an adventure.

Great to see you here! And yeah, I think the blog crush is easy to spot it's one of those "um, seriously? you commented on the 'I'm off to the dentist!' post?" ;) @Becky - apparently, more frequent posting does usually translate to more traffic, as long as it's interesting! But it seems to reduce comments. Even a-listers get fewer comments when they post frequently. Guess not everything blogged is worth replying to! :) @CanCan - well, we can be prolific mediocre bloggers together! ;) Seriously, I'm just glad when I know that it touched a cord with one person - I don't expect anyone to read every day! @Mousewords - thanks hon. I really appreciate the encouragement! Especially after you listen to my babble on Twitter regularly enough! :) @Jenny - dude. You commented on my blog. I'm SO going to get you drunk and fangirl all over you next time I see you again! You rock!! @Ro - thank you! I'm so glad you came over here! Please chime in whenever you feel like it!:) @Tina - hon, I don't even read myself every day! But I've never read anything by you that didn't make me either nod in agreement or think!! You are my posse and I am yours and anytime you want to sit all night in a hotel lobby? I am there!!! @Sorrow - you have been and are my sister... for 24 years now. I adore you, I always will - no matter how infrequently we actually touch base, you ARE home base. Love you. @Chris – thank you – feedback like that DOES help immensely! :)

I'm crushed. ;oD I really like your new format, and check in when I can. Definitely not remotely every day. But, still love you. Just remember, even when you are Alltop, people still don't comment. Lately, the flow of comments has slowed to a trickle on my blog, and I think part of it is that I am just about 10 years too old to be in the "in crowd." Eh, so what? As for you? You're verbose, and I like that in a girl. T. You don’t read me every day? I’m crushed. ;oD

I have just in the past 4 months become a "serious blogger", after 8 years of mamby-pamby myself. All of the "tips" I read say to post every day so that you start having people come back and read EVERY DAY. But it IS discouraging to spend time on something and then get no immediate response. This post is inspiring me to rise to NEW LEVELS OF MEDIOCRITY!!! Good point. I have just in the past 4 months become a “serious blogger”, after 8 years of mamby-pamby myself.

I too wonder about posting frequency--I just started a blog about 4 months ago and am really loving it, but I would like to hit upon a posting stride that suits both me and my audience (all thirty of them). The conventional wisdom is that posting more leads to more traffic--I don't know. Anyway, I love your voice and the mockos sound good too! I just found your blog and am enjoying it!

Keep the good stuff coming, I'll be reading...and probably commenting sporadically!

Better yet, I should just add your feed to my netvices page. Thanks! Now that I know you’ll be posting more often, I’ll be visiting more often.
