What To Do With The Comments…
Comments are tricky.
I like to post comments on other people’s blogs. Mostly because I know cool it is to get comments and of course, the cross-promotion never hurts. But mostly, it’s the joy of knowing people read your blog.
But I never know how to answer questions or comments in the comment. Do you email the person with your thoughts? Do you add a comment to your own blog entry? I rarely ever go back to a post after I’ve commented, so I rarely ever know if anything else was said. I know for my comments, I usually reply by email to the sender. I think it makes more personal that way.
But that’s just how I roll. Holla.

For me, it depends on the situation. Sometimes there really isn’t a response, and I don’t do anything at all. Is this rude? Do I have to reply to every comment? Great, now I have to think about THAT. Thank you very much Patrick.

It depends on the comment, you know? Some are just agreeing with the post and that’s cool. No real need to respond. But it also depends on how you do it. I like to respond to most comments, but then again, I’m anal like that.

I like to respond, but I find I kind of get carried away and forget to. Also, most people do not comment with address that can be replied to, and that’s frustrating!
