It’s fun to blog!

The last few days of blogging have been very enjoyable! Very enjoyable indeed!

I want to thank a few people for making it so fun over the last few days. It’s not just been through interaction here, although that has been a big part in why I have enjoyed it so much, but it’s also been through interacting with those same people on other peoples blogs. I want to thank Nick, Ben, Aidan, Shawn and Derek for contributing here. But I also want to thank those people for the little community of bloggers that feels like its building here and on their sites. It’s been a fun few days conversing with you all on various topics and hearing(reading) what you have to say about things.

You may have guessed that I’ve been enjoying blogging more over the last few weeks by the volume of posting thats been taking place. There are many reasons for that, the introduction of my “Blog it!” button in my bookmarks which has allowed for me to use my notes more and keep the content flowing.blogit But whilst the content has been flowing the people visiting an commenting have also contributed tot he fun. I do however, get the feeling that two are so closely linked that were I to stop posting the whole thing would collapse. I guess that means I will be posting more and more, and as I have some interesting things in the pipeline it looks like 2007 could be a fun year for blogging!

LOL! I think before it had always been something I just did in the background, I wanted to do it, but I didn’t really know how to do it, if you konw what I mean?

Now I do it becuase its fun and I enjoy interacting with the people who read it! You don’t get the full blogging experience without the commentors!

I can see why you would think that Aidan, the world has one view of it, but really its not that well informed as the people who present it probably aren’t involved in it.

Yeah that’s very true. I am just glad I decided to give it a go! It has allowed me, as it will have every other blogger, to get chatting to new people and share their experiences with them.

I know what you mean, when I first started blogging, I liked it, but it felt like a chore sometimes. It wasn’t until I started getting readers and commenting on others blogs that I started to truly love it. I am happy that joyed that you are having fun, keep up the good work my friend.
