From posting, to responding to comments, to reading and commenting on other blogs, and to working a full time job. This is why I don't have time to use Facebook, Twitter, or all the other social networks. For me, blogging is my favorite way to socialize.<br /><br />I often end up finding things to write about from being inspired through what other bloggers write about. Something they say will often spark something within myself, that I can elaborate on in my own way.<br /><br />"I'll probably end up just starting writing any old nonsense and see where it takes me. Bear that in mind next time you see a post from me."<br /><br />Trust me, sometimes I get that way myself. After having this blog for over 6 years now, it takes effort sometimes to come up with something to post. But my feeling is, I would rather post something, than nothing. And sometimes just sharing any old nonsense is FUN!<br /><br />So blog on, my friend!Ronhttp://www.triloquist.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-48740181827962090582013-06-15T10:34:25.481-04:002013-06-15T10:34:25.481-04:00I really like the WordPress Android app. It's...I really like the WordPress Android app. It's a good clean UI, and since I use my phone for everything it is nice to have a simple and intuitive input medium. To be perfectly honest, if I read every post of all the blogs I follow, I'd never get time to write, (case in point; I've felt a bit guilty recently about not commenting on blogs I follow, so I've spent three evenings this week getting pulled into reading loads of other people's work instead of concentrating on my own. Consequently, I appear to have missed this weekend's flash of inspiration and am currently fishing for a post) so I shall have to try and focus this afternoon. <br />I'll probably end up just starting writing any old nonsense and see where it takes me. Bear that in mind next time you see a post from me.

From what others have shared who are also on Wordpress, they already supply a feed reader for those who use WP as their blog platform.<br /><br /><br />You're right, you must already be using that, so that is your reader.<br /><br /><br />There are various feed readers you can use and the one I use is Google Reader. They are closing it down, so now I have to find a different one.<br /><br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, buddy.

I did try the Google Bookmark, but it's kind of involved. You have to "add" all your web-sites/blogs. <br /><br /><br />I did try Feedly. I don't like it much right now. I guess cuz I'm not used to it. Google is so much better.

Yes, all this techie stuff is...Hellooooooooo Mary!<br /><br />Yes, all this techie stuff is somewhat confusing to me as well. There are just way too many options, so I try to keep things simple.<br /><br />"I don't know if someone can subscribe to an email version of my blog or comment following or whatever? I probably wouldn't know how to set it up if it's not automatically included with a Blogger page. LOL"<br /><br />Yes, that is VERY easy to do and something I would recommend because many people would rather get updates via email subscription rather than through a feed reader.<br /><br />And it's very easy on Blogger. Just go to your layout and find gadgets. Select the "email subscription" widget and then all you have to do is place it on your sidebar - VIOLA! The widget is already set up for your blog feed, so you don't have to do a thing.<br /><br />A reader is basically like getting a newspaper update to a blog you read. Everytime a person posts, your reader will notify you. It's kinda like getting an email. I usually read all the post updates on my reader and then I GO to the person's blog to leave a comment. I don't comment on all the blogs I read because some are just informational blogs.<br /><br />I usually have no problem commenting on a Wordpress blog, nor do I ever need to sign into an account. For me, WP's commenting format is VERY easy and fast.<br /><br />Listen, if you ever have questions about doing something on your blog and you're stuck, just email me and I will try to help you if I can.<br /><br /><br /><br />Much thanks for stopping by, neighbor!

I've never done that before, so I may have to try it on a few blogs and see if I like it.
