I am more to a blog reader than a blogger.
The reason is simple and cliché. I have limited vocabs as I am JUST a learner. So it doesn’t surprise me at all if I skipped most of the blogs with lengthy contents.
It’s interesting to know reasons behind why bloggers posted their blogs ? Few even were able to write more than 300 blogs.
I wonder from all the blogs you have written, which blog got the most viewers and comments ? And which one is more valuable for you ? the number of VIEWS of number of COMMENTS you got in your blog ?

Hi Barb, thanks for your comment, I have read your best blog, yep u got lots of viewers there and I know why....it was such a good blog with many attempting pictures to be commented. Well done Barb ! and
Luci, I agree with what u said " You can write something longer and if it is catchy, people will read it without a single comment like - ohhh too longggg"
You are very talented woman, Luci ! Most of your blogs were written with emotions, u talked to ur readers as u wrote, so it is how your long blogs ddnt sound so long ! Well, you sing as well as you talk and write. I love your voice as well as speaking or singing. Too Talented !
Afro, I agree !
Writing helps to loosen our worries, i feel that too esp for some unspoken words.
Hello IF,
let me add my opinion on blogging and everything related to this topic. If I sum it up, I have written so far 63 blogs, even I got shocked how come I am able to write so many since my first blog was posted on 29th April this year. If I wouldn´t count the blogs about MS and MR.EC - 56 remain, which means that I am able to write 9 blogs on some particular topic in one month. Am I psycho or what????!!!! :-D
You know, I love writing and you know very well my brain is little bit passive since m still surrounded by the kids. So do believe me that to immerse myself into writing is a big relax for me and another plus point is that there are still so many ideas on my mind - even now there are like three topics I would like to write about them.
If I look back, I would like to post blogs, which are the most closest to my heart, so here you are and I would be glad if you read them :-p

Honestly, I prefer writing about my own experiences, about something I come across during my hectic day. In my opinion it isn´t about how long blog is, but how interesting for the readers it is. You can write something longer and if it is catchy, people will read it without a single comment like - ohhh too longggg. On the other hand it isn´t easy at all, to write in funny, interesting way and to catch the attentinon of others because as you know - 100 people - 100 opinions etc...
Thanx for this post and btw pictures made me laugh :D
I think, writing blogs is a kind of refreshment. Everybody has work pressure, has problems but when I start writing, I always find it heals my worries for everything. So, I like to write.
Noa, thanks heaps for your comment. Thanks for being the first one to comment on my blog. Highly appreciated. One interesting thing is : I enjoy reading some of your blogs, esp. the story abt the thieves psychology (I forgot its title), but it was the 1st blog I read from you and since then I would try to check out on your blogs.
Yes, for me, most of your blogs are very lengthy. However, your blog titles are very un common and its why you captured most of the viewers to comment on you.
Most of my EC friends such as AH_TK and WMR love to point out to me that my blogs are very lengthy. Though I will never admit it, I do write a bit longer than, maybe, some of EC bloggers.
From all the blogs that I've written (119 so far), I don't know which one has the most views or comments. I guess I am a bit biased because I love all my blogs. But five blogs that I love more than others due to various reasons are:-
1. My Virtual Friends - My Journey With ESL/EC;
2. Rin Tin Tin - My English Hero;
3. Virtual World, Virtual Friends;
4. Short Story - How I Wish, and
5. Short Story - Life Puzzles (9 chapters)
For me, writing blog is for personal satisfaction. To have an outlet which breaks from my normal and mundane works and chores.
