For those of you who have blog rolls, and have included my blog on your list, I want to say thank you.
For those of you who do, you may have checked my blog to see if you are on mine, only to find out I do not have a blog roll on my site. Sorry.
I have "over" 30 some blogs that get checked on a daily basis in my "Google Reader". The list continually grows. I have a hard time keeping up with reading and commenting on these, let alone maintaining my own blog at times.
I made a conscious decision at one time to remove the blog roll from my site. I did this because, I always felt like I was missing someone who visits my site. Every new comment I get, I read. I don't always respond, due to volume, and my time constraints. Like I said two posts ago, If a new person visits, and leaves me a comment, I'll go check out their profile. If they have a blog, I'll check that out too. If the blog is interesting to me, I'll add it to my Google Reader, and get updates when they do a new post.
I know there are tons more blogs out there that are of interest to me that I cannot posibly read, or give proper credit to on a blog roll, therefore I choose not to have one at all.
I fault no one for having one, and like I said, If my blog is on it, thanks!
I just wanted to clear the air officially as to why you are not on my blog roll. It's because I don't have one, and now you know why.)
I find that I run into the same problem. I regularly read many great blogs about motorcycles every day that aren't listed on my blog roll. It's not meant to intentionally snub anyone but I have hard time keeping up with all the great new ones I find.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea putting a public apology out there. I should probably think about doing the same thing.
Well I'm glad for the ones that do roll. I'd of never found most all of you. I did get in to this from finding Mr. M on the beachcruiser.com.
ReplyDeleteI don't think an apology is necessary, but thank you for caring enough about our feelings to do it.
ReplyDeleteI try to add people to my list when we start having a regular communication, but I probably have snubbed someone at some point unintentionally. The blog roll makes it a little bit easier for me to keep track, but I understand why you don't have one. As long as you don't start blocking my comments I'll be happy. :)
I guess this was not meant so much as an apology as an explanation. I just figured since blog rolls came up today on Road Captain USA's blog. that I'd write about why I don't have one. I figured some of you may have wondered why.
ReplyDeleteBlog Roll - Hard Roll. Sometime you just run out of room. Most of the time I wind up using links off other Blogs anyway.
ReplyDeleteThere is just so much good stuff to read out there.
well worth the read. I found it very informative as I have been researching a lot lately on practical matters such as you talk about…
