This blog surpasses 10,000 comments

10,021 legitimate comments received to be specific.

To think, I’ve read the most of these.

And some say blogging is a time consuming business! Ha!

I say ‘legitimate’ as I receive somewhere in the region of 500 spam comments per day; thankfully, the software takes care of these for me. And this number doesn’t include the countless obnoxious comments I’ve deleted ;-)

Although this is a small number in comparison to the longstanding big hitting bloggers; I still never imagined my little niche blog would garner so many comments when I started out.

This blog continues to have a very low comment to visitor ratio; with the vast majority of you never saying a word. Feel free to simply say Hi on this blog post if you’d like. Let us know where you’re from, or where you blog, or whatever……

A heartfelt thank you to everybody that has contributed.

    Hi Stuart and many thanks to all for the recent postings on blogging as I was one of 300+ delegates at last Sat’s Premier Radio’s Christian New Media Conference. The intention was to help my consideration of going from private mailings into open blogging, and all that would entail. It was a most stimulating time.

    However, the major problem of social networking could be its distracting us away from our relationship with Jesus. May His Spirit be with you in all you say and do.

    Thanks Richard, funny enough my email to you crossed with your comment.

    Do let me know if you decide to start a blog.

    I will say that blogging can be one of the most satisfying of endeavours, as well as one of the most dispiriting.

    You certainly need the skin of a rhino!

    As it happens Fr, I thought about you when I wrote an earlier post and I suspect you may know who I’m alluding to re Anglican Bloggers

    Many thanks for your thought, Stuart. I am unable to understand why some bloggers like, say, Peter Ould weren’t given preferment. A blogger who is obsessed with men’s bottoms has publicly shown the main thrust of his theology. i.e. the Prostate. It is utterly amazing no Bishop has accepted his profound ministry.
