That’s a way that gets me to read you, yeah, but then you become a blogger that I like, which puts you into the blogger that I like category.

What about the comment a blogger makes on another blogger’s post?

That’s how I found you.

Hi taorist,
This is a question that I’m working on. Thanks for adding to the dialogue.

I think the blogger has the most to do with it for me. The post has a lot as well. I’m trying to figure what is the gating factor when I don’t know the blogger . . .

You’re a nice one too.

What makes someone comment?

…is it the the post?
…is it the blog design?

…is it the picture of an attractive person on the “About Me” page?

Readers (“Lurkers”) like me have different reasons to post comments.

Just like this one.

I commented on it because:
1. I liked the post.
It madde me think about blog posting in a whole different light.
2. I like the blogger.
You’re a nice one.
