I know that one of my bloggy friends has asked this question before... but I don't remember who... or what the answer was.... sooo as I am too lazy to go through everyone on my blogrolls history... I am just going to ask myself!
Do people go back and read the comment section that they have left a comment on to see if there is a response... or do you want someone to go to your blog and perhaps leave a message that isn't appropriate(or at least isn't about that particular post) on your last blog?
I know that there is a way to attach your email to your blog, so that when you leave a message on some one's comments they can just "respond" to the notification email. And just to throw my opinion in there, I am connected this way if anyone ever wants to respond to a comment I leave. I learned how to do this from a Mama's Losin It tutorial (which is actually a SITS tutorial, I guess...) BUT most of the people who comment on my blog are not connected in that way.
Ok have I thoroughly confused everyone?
The question is how would you like to get a response from a comment?
I often want to respond to people... but am not sure how to go about it... and then I end up not responding at all.... and that makes me feel bad.. or like I don't care about the comments... which is certainly not how I feel.
All of this comes from me not knowing how I should respond to comments in general, but it became very apparent to me when I wanted to thank everyone who left me kind comments on my Surprise! blog. Those comments meant the world to me because I was feeling a little overwhelmed and somewhat exposed at the time, so for now I will just say Thank You So Much from the bottom of my heart!
I can not explain how much I appreciate the friendships that I have acquired through this whole blogging thing. I know that I am nowhere near the consistent blogger that I was hoping to be when I first started this blog, but every post I do put up is straight from my heart, and I really can't describe the feeling I get from knowing that (although they are few) I do have a few really great people out there who are actually interested in the things that I might have to say!!
thanks again everyone!!
oh yeah, and don't forget to answer my question in my comment section if you wouldn't mind!! : )
Today I am grateful for the friendships that I have made through this fascinating world of blogging!

I'm not very computer savvy, if I think the blogger may respond to my comment I will check back. Smoetimes I check back to see other people's comments, too. On my own blog I sometimes respond to comments, but I'm not ever sure if the person/people evev see them. I'm really no help, am I? :)
well, that is basically what I do... but I was curious what other people did... or wanted... so you were helpful! : ) thanks!
I posted a survey with that very question, could that be what you're thinking of? My results were that more than half of the people who answered will go back and check comments on the blogs they read. Did that help? I hope so!!
yes! it must have been you! I knew that it was someone... I just couldn't remember who... I guess that I'll just keep responding here... and hope for the best! : )
I am clueless as the rest of you :) If someone asks a question I try to answer it by posting the answer in a comment on their blog. I try to remember to check back on ones I posted but, the old memory isn't so great :)
