Tangled thoughts about blogs

I've dutifully looked at quite a few of the other 23 Things blogs, and made a couple of comments when they've written about non-programme things. At this stage, however, I'm guessing that most of 100 or so blogs are almost identical, and so not the most exciting read.

Then again, neither is this - it feels rather like self-indulgence, both to write when I have nothing to say, and to assume that people are reading it...

  1. I like your blog post because it could turn into quite a philiosophical debate. You are right to assume that perhaps no one is reading them, but the fact that I have read it shows that people are. Write about something exciting and that you actually want to write about and people will want to read it too, rather than feel obliged to because of this 23 Things programme.

  2. Definitely, I would feel free to go a bit "off-piste" with additional blog posts, above and beyond the ones assigned for 23 Things. Luckily on the web you can't really run out of space... although this can also be daunting, an infinite sheet of white paper.

  3. I was curious about whether people would be reading my 23things blog so set up a stat counter. As far as I can tell Blogger doesn't offer a stat counting feature like Wordpress does so I had to add one to my blog. I can confirm that people are visiting though and hopefully reading also!
