I Don't Reply Either...

Published on May 6, 2005 By Silver_and_Jade_Tears In Blogging

On my last article about working at a CPA office, I had 5 replies, some of which were my own. That is the new norm for me, because of my lack of.... dailly blogging. The odd thing is that 746 people clicked on that article. Yes, I realize that some were reclicking, for whatever reason, but all the same, out of approx 746 people, I had less than 5 replies.

I do the same thing. When I first log on to JU, I often just read through the new posts, or recent replies, and browse some of my favorites. I don't reply though. The reason in most cases is because someone has already said what I wanted to say. Great minds think alike. Another reason is beause I don't have any interest in what the article was actually about, the title just sounded interesting, or in some cases, just wierd or confusing.

Another odd thing was the number of... I can't think of the exact word now... "home" visits, or page visits. On the same article as above, I had over a thousand views in less than a month. That is a record for me, before I left, and now. What are people expecting to see exactly? That sounded rude, I know... and I'm not complaining, just really curious...

So, to the multiples...just leave a reply, even if it's just Hi. I would like to see exactly who is out there reading me...

Thank you for your time...

1000 views? That's impressive. Mine never get more than a few dozen at best.

Oh yeah, HI

I'm not gonna reply to this! DAMN! I couldn't resist!

Good to see an article of yours. I don't catch a lot of them that are posted when I'm not online.

Lol, I honestly didn't expect to get this many replies!

Manopeace: Hi, I am glad it's going well too.

Danny: I'm not replying to you either...

Ravenblack: At least I got your attention.

Dr.Guy: Now that April is over, things are quiet for the most part. Hello, btw.

MasonM: Hi, I know I have read a few of yours, just keep writing.

BlueDev: Hi hi.

Thatoneguy: I did, but I really enjoyed blogging, so I am back. Who is the fourth Utahn?

Forever: Perhaps we should make a club... The Unreplied, but Really Read Club

drmiler: lucky for me, I haven't written anything that can be agreed or disagreed with lately. At least, not that I know of.... glad you are still reading. I am honored.

Nebraska: Hi to you as well.

Cordelia: I love your name. Hi.

Gideon: I haven't really written much lately. Glad you still read the ones you do catch.

Moderateman: It's nice to see you replying to my articles.

My recent series regularly gets about 100 views, and has me and two other people commenting a few times. But I must admit to committing the act of often read seldom comment myself.

I utterly refuse to say hi despite having already commented!
