JetPass – You do like to spread your nasty all around. don’t you?? Why don’t you keep all your negativity away from others – like maybe you should stick to writing that miserable, jealous crap you write at your real blog – pooponpeeps.com. I thoyught that’s what you and your hatemongering crew preached.

I don’t know about this one. I write for the same network asDarren, though, but I’ve actually never had any co-worker (even those who I see every day) crash on my couch! Maybe I need to get out more.

I’m not sure that’s fair, Jetpass. What if a blogger has 50,000 readers, and 1/4 of them have blogs, conservatively? Is it conceivable that the blogger could possibly visit and comment on 12,500 blogs?

I read the great blogs, large or small, because of the content—not out of some expectation of reciprocity. The time they spend churning out quality content is enough for me.

yeah I gotta say I don’t think Ree Drummond aka Pioneer woman was one of the people who leaves Bossy comments yet she stopped at her Ranch. That my find is marketing scheme not blogging at it’s best. How many of those people Bossy is stopping to see actually get comments from Georgia left on their blogs? I find that once you become an A’lister they don’t comment on other blogs anymore. It’s all about them and feeding the ego.

You know, I was actually thinking of doing something like this – a cross country trip, meeting readers of my blog. And now “The Bossy Lady” is doing it. That’s really cool.

I guess for now, I’ll start by going to SOBCON08 and then taking things from there. It’ll be my first blogging conference, an opportunity to meet in the flesh many of whom have become readers and subscribers at my blog.

Interesting way of showing appreciation. I wouldn’t want one of those major bloggers staying at my house because I wouldn’t be able to talk to them as they would be too busy with their nose 5 feet deep into their RSS reader while typing up new posts at the same time. Besides, only those who are on the lower end of the blogosphere totem pole realize what appreciation is, the same can not be said for those on the A-List or the blogging Elite.

Hafiz: I’m confident that Darren smells like a rose… BUT simply having a wife and two kids doesn’t guarantee squat. ;-)

From what I’ve seen, I’m pretty sure Darren has good hygiene. Besides, he also has a wife and two kids.
