		<description>[...] Blogs are only as successful as the people who write, read, and comment on them. So, if you want your personal or corporate blog to be a success, then it only makes sense for you to take the time to read and comment on other people&#8217;s blogs. [...]</description>

		<description>When I talk to bloggers (corporate and non-corporate) about growing their blog, the first piece of advice I always give is 'The best way to grow your blog, is to leave it!'  And I believe it.  You are contributing to the larger community, you are learning from other bloggers, and to complete the cycle, you are giving other bloggers the incentive to come back and comment on YOUR blog!  It's a win-win situation!  Great post, as usual Connie!</description>

		<description>Connie,

Right on. The only suggestion you post that I personally disagree with is the use of a reader. For me, using a reader is a bit too much like subscribing to more magazines that I can keep up with, so eventually I allow the subscriptions to lapse.

The way I keep up with the blogosphere is by actively using my blog roll. I am careful which blogs I place on that roll, but once there, I work through it once a week so I visit each blog weekly. That is why I am here today. You are at the top of my Typelist, which is ordered by date added not alpha. For me, this works better.</description>
