To tell the truth I think things are gradually improving as far as reading and commenting goes. I know I’m slowly but surely having more comments left. It’s been such slow progress that it’s been almost imperceptible, but looking back 6 months, there is quite a difference.
It’s not always easy to comment. I frequently read with interest, but don’t really have anything constructive to say. I don’t like leaving something like “Great post”, so I don’t, but perhaps it would be better than nothing.

I hope that you enjoy your holiday. I agree what you say about commenting, etc. I find that with some people’s blogs there is so much flash that the page takes forever to open and then you find yourself skirting around the page looking for the Entrecard widget to drop onto. If a page takes forever to load it is not inviting for the visitor to read a current post. Another thing I have observed is that some people’s comments section have a string of letters to type in to avolid spam … I don’t know whether it’s me but it often takes me three or four goes of typing in the scrambled letters before accepting the comment. That’s really off putting, don’t your think?

Hi Jude, have a great vacation!

i dont really think about the drop and run happenings, i just like ec for structuring my blogging experience, also to use as a tool to help me find new blogs…

i try to comment, but a lot of times, i just dont know how to respond and comment or as a relatively new blogger dont feel comfortable commenting, and i think that’s the way it is for a lot of people too.

Hi Lea,

Hi Lainy,
I drop and read, but don’t comment on every site. I need to do that more.

Hi Jude

I hope you have a good, relaxing and bonding time. I have your sites on my bookmarks. I’ll try to remember to access your sites from that instead of Entrecard. I hope you will forgive me if I forget a day or two though.

Just have a good time filled with many blessings.

I hear you.

The drop and run phenomenon fills my heart with so much consternation. There are a lot of blogs out there who have such great content (yours included), but many of the droppers doesn’t pay much attention. They might be reading but are mere lurkers and refuses to engage themselves in the conversation.

Next week, I will be off for vacation too, about 3 days. I will need to pick up the pieces when I get back. I’m sure I will lose some regular droppers, but what the heck! I need a break and EntreCard can wait, hehe!
