In a way, I feel like I've become a lazy blogger. I started out with the intention to write essays (at first I thought maybe one or two a week) but then I got to be driven by the need to post something new every day but also, surfing and sharing what I find is fun and people seem to like that. To get back to what I originally intended I'd have to do less surfing, more reading and thinking but I'd still sort of like to really write more often.By the way, I like it when you post stuff like this - just your own thoughts about whatever.
Ok, that last line has nothing to do with the topic, but I included it because I like compliments.
Anyway, yeah, I'd like to do more thoughtful pieces too. They just FEEL good to write.
However, there's nothing wrong with putting up stuff that's "just a link" and has no substantive commentary.
The great thing about Lynn's "just links" is that - since I don't get over to the classy side of the 'sphere much - it's a lifeline to things that stretch my mind.
Which brings me to my point. There have been several occasions when I've seen a cool link to something at numerous of the large blogs, but I liked it so much that I posted about it anyway, even though I figured everyone else had already seen it.
People commented to thank me for posting it.
People linked to me and posted about it themselves.
The lesson here is that even if you think a topic is "everywhere" and you don't feel like you have anything to add by chiming in with your little link, go ahead & chime anyway.
Remember that for some of your readers - who surf in different circles than you - you may well be the only "everywhere" they go.
