sharing info about a new site

LeeNYC — Tue, 20 May 2008 21:48:21 -0500

I wasn't sure how to let you know about a site I launched with my family, so since you are asking for comments I thought I'd add it here:

Because we are a small business with no advertising budget, I am trying to get the word out about our site:

MostEmailedNews.com

Most news websites have that little box somewhere on the first page
telling you the top stories that people are sending to each other.

MostEmailedNews.com takes those boxes from a bunch of different news sources
(ranging from sites such as The NY Times, BBC, Times of India and CNN) and puts them all together for you. It
gives you a nice cross section of what people are emailing.

It's not yet finished but I thought I would share it with you. It's quite addictive since
I'm on it all the time now. Check it out and If you like it, please tell your friends!

I desperately need to do this

sassymonkey — Thu, 15 May 2008 10:25:05 -0500

I've been thinking about this and I realize I've become very, very bad at leaving comments...even on blogs that I read regularly. And I feel like a heel about it. Like my former roommate once said, "I think about a lot of things in my head and sometimes I forgot that other people can't hear inside my head too."

I've been trying the last few days to be a more active commenter.

It's a great challenge! :) I'm heading over to sign up although I'll miss a day or two during my move. :)

Count me in! WHOO HOO! :)

Exactly!

Who wants to think that they're speaking to an empty room? Even if you have a sitemeter and know people are visiting your blog, it is hard to have your words met with silence. Were they read? Did they affect someone?

I need to learn more about Stumble and other networks like that.

So True

And it's amazing what you can learn about your own life or experience by reading about someone leading a life or having an experience quite different from your own.

What is your blog url so I can add you to the list?

Committing to commenting

Candelaria Silva — Thu, 15 May 2008 09:16:17 -0500

I'm in. I try very hard to leave comments now and I explore at least two new blogs weekly. Great idea.

When you step outside your comfort zone, inner-circle, you inevitably find other human beings there many of whom you can relate to despite any small or big definition by which we define ourselves (i.e., age, gender, lifestyle, beliefs, habits).

Candelaria - Good and plenty!

It Keeps Things Going

alyssaroyse — Thu, 15 May 2008 08:55:08 -0500

I have to say, comments (sometimes even mean ones) really help a blogger keep going. When someone writes a really great blog and then no one comments on it, it can be hard to keep going if you think that you're speaking to yourself..... So I think this is a great idea! It's like a pat on the back to bloggers who are really creating this new media.

I will make an effort here to start clicking through people's sig links and meet some new people, let you know you're heard....

The other really helpful thing is to Stumble blog posts that you think are really good. I know that as we try to build traffic around social change on JUST CAUSE IT, when an article gets stumbled enough, it makes a world of difference!
