A big woo-hoo to all my guests and visitors over the past month. Thankyou for helping to shape this blog.

If I could just point out the comment section and maybe draw your attention to it that would be good.

Whenever I visit other sites, especially blogs and homepages I always try to do one of a few things. The reasson is those actions are what I would like to see happen on my blog, homepage or other site (I get about a bit).

Action number one is to read what ever the site owner has taken the good time to write. I might not read it all and sometimes I find I only read very little but I do try to atleast understand the bloggist to some degree.

Then I like to read the comments other people have left. Only after all that do I allow myself to do the best bit of all - I post a message.

Posting messages is a form of real power - you get to add something to the website. You change that site forever. For this reason I try to say something worthwhile.

There are real benifits to you for your efforts at commenting. Most commenting system allow you to provide some way for your that sites visitors to find you and return the favour. This means that you may get none, one or some return visitation. Which is a big deal if you readership is close on none at all.

There are further benifits from visiting a site and commenting, especially if you return and say hi again and again. You both gain a small sense of friendship, community and conectedness. This tends to be a two way thing and can lead to many hours or even days of constant happy blogging.

Try it to day drift outside of your box and say "hi" to the world. Tell them the Beautiful Talker sent you, just for fun.
