I ...I don't think your reaction was off at all. I think it's frustrating if you comment a ton and nothing is ever reciprocated, especially if it's a smaller blog. But that's just my opinion.<br /><br />I don't leave a lot of comments on the bigger blogs, but when I do I don't usually expect a response/return comment etc, because I know that they get a gazillion comments. <br /><br />I do not use twitter well at all, but I always respond to @'s. I'm usually good about responding to comments and visiting other blogs, but it's manageable for me because I have a small blog. <br />Kimberly @ Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649785182080499981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-18175494223098159342012-09-21T10:56:50.665-04:002012-09-21T10:56:50.665-04:00This is such a good question.

Honestly, I haven't even read any blogs in over a week and trying to catch up today is killing me just a little.fakestephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08178042157823156839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-71849272222443189402012-09-21T00:18:27.614-04:002012-09-21T00:18:27.614-04:00I am the worst at blog commenting!

I really appreciated what you said, though. It made me stop and think. I find that I make more of an effort to comment on my blogger friends blogs. If I have an extra 15 mins those are the blogs I'll gravitate towards. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing. <br /><br />Thanks for the food for thought. ~Sara @ Just Another Storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870692977272702662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-34760564948692673152012-09-18T09:34:38.886-04:002012-09-18T09:34:38.886-04:00@Jenny-I love having a conversation too.

It is very noticeable that you reply to comments, lol. <br /><br />@Karen-Love what you said that blogging should not be about quid pro quo. And yes!!! The whole Twitter thing...I've felt stupid on more than 1 occassion! Glad I'm not alone!<br /><br />@Arianne-Thank you!<br /><br />@Kate-I've been bad lately with commenting because August/Sept. has just been really busy. I really like Twitter just because it's so great to build relationships or just have casual conversations. <br /><br /><br /><br />Midnyte Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10411332857885069319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-9542669854260730212012-09-17T19:17:20.939-04:002012-09-17T19:17:20.939-04:00I try really hard to leave comments on blogs that ...I try really hard to leave comments on blogs that comment on mine, but there are days/weeks when I fail. I try to keep the bloggers I am closest to in a special Google Reader file so that I don't miss their posts (you are, of course, among that group!), but again some days are just full with all the other stuff I'm neglecting. <br /><br />I do need to tweet more often, and join the conversation because I feel like I'm still left of center in the blogging community. I have no one to blame but myself, however I give myself permission to start over everyday with best intentions!Kate @Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220575670960466054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-2531334479199531022012-09-17T17:00:37.770-04:002012-09-17T17:00:37.770-04:00relatively low following? lol I have low following...relatively low following? lol I have low following. you have over 500!! :) anyway, I just became a follower. yey :)<br /><br />i probably should go follow u on twitter too.. *runs off to twitter*Ariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17010201524640381070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-82006523033016626442012-09-17T16:37:29.552-04:002012-09-17T16:37:29.552-04:00You really need to assess why you blog and why you...You really need to assess why you blog and why you comment (not you personally lol) It has to be because you're interested in reading and sharing - it can't be just for a quid pro quo. That's just my opinion.<br /><br />BUT you brought up something and I totally saw myself!! I don't care about reciprocating blog comments but when you mentioned tweeting to people that don't respond - that upsets me. lol <br /><br />I guess because it's kind of like a live conversation & you see them answering other people but not you. It's almost embarrassing. Like all things though, I'm sure they're busy/talking to 100 other people etc. <br /><br />I love that you looked inside yourself and got a different outlook on it. Blogging can damage the ole ego if you let it :-)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07685405404548766935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-37592624594011471352012-09-17T11:02:22.664-04:002012-09-17T11:02:22.664-04:00For me personally, I tend to gravitate toward the ...For me personally, I tend to gravitate toward the blogs that reciprocate on the comments. I want my blog to be more interactive in nature, meaning when people comment, they know I'll either respond to their comment on my blog, or comment back on theirs (usually both) so that I can feel like I'm actually talking to people and not just putting my opinion out there with no discussion:) I don't like feeling like I'm talking to myself!<br /><br />I'll be the first to admit that it takes a lot of time to comment. A lot. I probably spend 2 hours a day commenting, and that's just not possible for everyone and I definitely understand. I never hold it against anyone who doesn't return a comment, everyone has such different schedules, and like you Pam, there are a bunch of blogs I still enjoy following even if they don't comment:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.com
