Good to know. I'm not very diligent about Twitter anyway. I'd rather have blog readers than Twitter followers (have I got the jargon right?)<br /><br />Dana, I will keep everyone posted. <br /><br />Andrew, speak to Cheryl. She clearly needs some guidance when it comes to felines.<br /><br />Cheryl A, great point about the "blinders". I am finding so many sites are cluttered with plug-ins designed to drive traffic I think they defeat their own purpose.<br /><br />Robin, good to know! This sort of feedback is invaluable.<br /><br />Marion, thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one who does this. Only I was an adult at the time. You were a kid so it's forgivable!<br /><br />Steph, I'm sure I'll be contacting you. Thanks so much for the offer!!<br /><br />Anyone else have opinions??? Cheryl, no Twitter feeds! Good to know.

Dana, I will keep everyone posted.

Andrew, speak to Cheryl. She clearly needs some guidance when it comes to felines.

Cheryl A, great point about the "blinders". I am finding so many sites are cluttered with plug-ins designed to drive traffic I think they defeat their own purpose.

Robin, good to know! This sort of feedback is invaluable.

Marion, thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one who does this. Only I was an adult at the time. You were a kid so it's forgivable!

Steph, I'm sure I'll be contacting you. Thanks so much for the offer!!

Anyone else have opinions???

Yup. One of those iconic rubber balls for stick ball, stoop ball or just messing around. Sigh. I love this story, and had forgotten mine until I read yours. Thanks so much.

I prefer the pop-up comment box.<br /><br />As for the rest of most blogs I don't look at much else after the first couple of times visiting. I kind of have blinders on for straight content.

Twitter feeds on blogs annoy me. That said, they might encourage your blog readers to follow you on Twitter so I can see the benefit.

Recent comments in the sidebar? Never look at them. I click on the post and read through them that way instead.

I think I woke up grumpy.
