I totally agree ...HOLY moly, where to start?? haha<br /><br />I totally agree with the "push and pull" of blogging you described... In my opinion, blogs are for sharing opinions, getting feedback, etc. The blog world is such a huge online community, especially for artists and craftspeople. Some of my favorite (non-friend) bloggers are the ones who respond to my comments, or comment on my blog posts after I've visited theirs. Why bother to share your opinions if you don't really care who's reading them?<br /><br />I mean, sure, some people have personal journal blogs, but for the most part, people blog with the intent of others reading their posts. Blogs encourage sharing... so I don't know why some people get so weird about commenters. Obviously, there are a TON of creepers on the internet, but I think they're lurking around chat rooms, forums, and FB more so than design/lifestyle/whatever blogs. I could be naive, but.. just saying. <br /><br />I don't know if I've ever told you about the time some "anonymous" commenter very rudely pointed out a spelling error of mine once upon a time, but I was livid. I thought about lashing back at the random person on my blog, but I want my GH to be an encouragement to others.... so I decided against it. I hate how people can use the internet for such negative things.<br /><br />Anyway, off my soap box for now. :) That's just my two cents... I feel like we could have a very long discussion about all of this! hahaKatherine Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01179574119249538157noreply@blogger.com
