There was a blogger once (I’ll assume she is still around in real life but apparently doesn’t blog anymore) who commented that she enjoyed reading my comments on blogs that we both followed. I find that compliment similar to people saying they enjoy your conversations at parties. So we browse around in these virtual blog parties and comment.
If a blog comment section is like a virtual party then Facebook is like the quick chit chat when you run into friends at the mall or bus stop.
Do you (this is directed to fellow bloggers) think leaving a months old post hanging on your blog, is like leaving your Christmas (or Halloween, any holiday) lights up until summer?
Yeah on the bathroom scale of problems that is really nothing but a small annoyance.
Blogs provide a virtual exchange only in the sense that players don’t physically meet but their ideas meet. The idea/thought exchange is very real. I’ve been know to leave a comment on an aging post. I have noticed that comments on an aged post are almost rare. I’m not sure why a post has an unwritten expiration date. Any ideas?
Often I feel comfortably posted here. Facebook feedback is very different. A “like” just means the “liker” noticed your post/share. I don’t expect (or promote) very deep discussions here but I’ve read some blogs with that tendency. The FB posts/comments are seldom very deep. Is that your experience or just my FB family friend group?
I’ve finished my tangent here. You see, I started out with the simple idea that I enjoy leaving comments scattered around blogland. I don’t think my comment scattering causes any mess. Even more interesting is when an exchange of thought comes from my comment debris. Most often I forget where I dropped my comment. Here’s a comment I dropped somewhere a few days ago (oh if you found it on your blog and didn’t expect it to be laid upon your blog go ahead, just delete it).
Blog on and leave FB for the chit chatters.

Believe it or not - I seriously thought of getting an earring once (I would have only had one ear done). Never did it but I guess there is still time. It would be useful when I dress as a pirate. A little bling on the ears is nice. Some people go over the top with it though.
