For the small number of people who read my blogs on a somewhat regular basis, or have at least noticed that I have sort of dissappeared off the radar, there are two reasons for this. The first being that I am graduating in about 3 weeks, I am a classs officer, so I am having to help plan graduation and pull it together, we had prom last weekend, and as spring sports and activities are coming to a close I am either participating in these events or I am covering them for school. Ya, its that crazy. However I have not been completely absent! I have been trying to comment still and keep up with people's blogs even if I have not been able to post. I would rather not post than fall behind on the insiteful things our fellow bloggers have to say. Which brings me to my point!
Part of the reason I have not posted is because before I post I like to look through blogs form the past day or so to make sure I am not blogging about something that has already been overdone, which seems to happen on here often. But when I sit down to read these blogs I find myself going through six pages of blogs for each day. Which is not neccessarially a bad thing! An increase in the amount of pages of blogs per day could mean that more people are getting involved, which is a good thing! Unfortunatley it is more a problem of over-blogging, again.
Every once and awhile, for those who have never read my first post on this, there is a case of over blogging on here. Which may sound like a petty problem to have, but when people over-blog IE post like six posts in a row, it makes it hard to find and read other people's posts; users who deserve for their posts to be seen and read just as much as anyone else. I am not saying this out of anger that my posts are not being read. I have not been posting at all! But I will say its hard to when everytime I find time to sit down and post I spend the entire time trying to sort through over blogging and end up not posting at all because of that. In fact, it has gotton to the point where I will maybe read and post on one of an over-bloggers post a day, or I will just skip all of them because their name is on there so many times in a row and I am looking for posts from other people.
I would argue that over blogging does not get more reads, its more of a turn off to getting reads than anything else. I may be the only one who feels that way, but if I am not, please drop a line. Not to mention I am not trying to offend anyone either, over blogging just really irratates me.













I too think that it is great more people are getting involved on this site but it is irritating to see a bunch of posts from the same person in a row. I think people should blog about important issues and things they want people to think about, I notice there are alot of people who post things just to post something, or an unneccisary rant. If you got something to say, then blog it, but it is annoying when people overdo it. Especially when it hinders the reads the a good post deserves.
