A Question...


Do you ever respond to comments left on your blog posts? I notice that some people never do. I find that a bit odd. I don't always respond to my comments. Sometimes it is not necessary. But the interaction between bloggers through comments is certainly a fun part of the experience. I notice that especially when comments are not left on a post of mine that I expect a would elicit some responses.

Some bloggers actively respond to most of their comments... The Rat Squeaks is a good example. He can be a bit cantankerous, but his readers enjoy that, I think. Cliff Morrow also is one who is fairly consistent with responding to comments. So, how about you? Do you respond to comments or just enjoy reading them?

I respond as much as I can. Sometimes I just don't have much to say, other times you can't shut me up. Depends on my mood I suppose. I feel that if people are nice enough to leave a comment, then we should at least acknowledge that with a response.

Glad you asked. I do some and don't some.
The serious questions I generally answer on my blog and theirs.
The rhetorical questions probably won't get answered. A few may get a (last word) return comment.

I think it depends on what the subject matter was if I respond to the comments. Some of my entries are definitely geared towards discussion, whereas others, are just for humor.

I asked my readers about that a while ago and they pretty much told me not to respond to my comments. I think they have a party of their own going on in the comment section and I'm not invited, ha,ha..

I like responses to comments I leave but I don't always check to see if one was left..

I read your blog all the time. I even made a comment once. See you soon =-) bw

depends on the mood, I guess. If I feel they are making a comment in a commentary sort of way, no, but if they are seemingly inviting interaction, sure.
