Who are you?

I ran into an old friend today that said she reads my blog. I would never have known because she has never left me a comment. No big deal but it got me thinking; I wonder who reads my blog besides my regular blogging buddies? So this post is dedicated to those that read but have never commented. I know I sent the web address to this blog to many of my New York buddies. I wonder if they ever read it? Hmm...I know that for myself, it took me quite a while before I felt comfortable with this whole blogging thing. My friend Sally started one and I probably read hers for about 6 months before I actually started to leave comments. Then it took probably another 6-12 months before I actually started my own blog. These new technological advances can be a little intimidating. However, I LOVE how they can also bring people together!! It has been a blast and brought joy to my heart to reconnect with long lost friends through the blogging world. It can be such a wonderful tool for keeping in touch with people. So anyway, I ask those of you who read my blog but never comment to PLEASE leave me a comment. It's really easy. Just click on the little underlined word at the bottom of the post that says "comments." It's pretty self-explanatory from there. I look forward to hearing from you!

Add this to your blog and it tracks your visitors letting you know where they're from...

I'm a reader. But I comment, so you already knew that. :)

You read my blog for six months without commenting? I never knew! Glad you de-lurked and have started your own. Don't you just love feeling connected? I know I do!

I know what you mean! i was at a brunch the other day with some ladies from my ward and we got on the subject of blogging. I had two girls admit that they had been lurking on my blog, but NEVER left a comment. I like the idea of adding a visitor spy eye to my blog. Awesome idea!

I have to admit that I check out many a blog without leaving a comment. I am one of those avid blog readers who is not yet a blogger. I'm going to get brave and start one soon. It just seems like a very big commitment. But I sure do enjoy reading yours!

I am the same as Connie. I have been an avid blog reader for about a year, but i say "I don't have time to start a blog". Jessi assured me that it is so easy. I am going to start one. You should have said that you saw me in the store;) I'm the guilty one. Keep blogging!
