I learn a lot that way.Brendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00062037882359130530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-13749645096508618462009-07-19T09:48:48.505-05:002009-07-19T09:48:48.505-05:00It is hard to lose sight of why we started blogging... it&#39;s important to remember, perhaps, the fun aspect of it all... unless you really are serious about turning it into a business. Then good luck - but remember that full disclosure is a must.ladyfihttp://ladyfi.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-57493189777891220282009-07-19T02:43:20.188-05:002009-07-19T02:43:20.188-05:00I think most bloggers need to stay true to the original reasons for blogging in the first place. Sometimes, we get some pleasant surprises thrown in, but most times, it ok just like it is.bettylhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03950300478215339641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-46601833851966896472009-07-19T02:42:54.577-05:002009-07-19T02:42:54.577-05:00I have to say that I blog because I love the creative outlet. I want to please myself and share my experiences with others. I have toyed with writing a book but I&#39;ve discovered that between four children, a house that is never clean and a career, I blog because I want to. <br /><br />Thanks for validating my purpose of blogging - to record my experiences with as much humor as I can find using my children and motherhood as blogging fodder.<br /><br />It makes me smileTaylor Clanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12395701326660695260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-81429056757070091652009-07-18T23:19:56.190-05:002009-07-18T23:19:56.190-05:00Not real thrilled with all the blogs and their giveaways and contests.<br /><br />I do have to say, we have a Keurig coffee maker and we love it! Dear hubby and I got it as a Christmas for each other. A lot less waste in half pots of coffee getting thrown out and I like it for brewing my green tea.Annahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10503148560467118087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-79156885631930668202009-07-18T21:26:34.647-05:002009-07-18T21:26:34.647-05:00Yep. Yep. Annnnd yep. I&#39;d love to do more reviews and such, but some of the offers I get are laughable. You can tell the PR company mass-blasted something out without reading any of th blogs in the hopes that some will bite. I&#39;ll be doing a Ford test drive this week, but mostly because I&#39;m really intrigued to learn more about what they&#39;re doing, especially in this economy. And if I&#39;m not liking what I&#39;m doing, I&#39;m done. And hopefully more people will find it that way, too!Michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07803503583347758969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-51928839763932868722009-07-18T19:39:34.894-05:002009-07-18T19:39:34.894-05:00Great advice.Unknown Mamihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17034216831504207496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-40254361622114603112009-07-18T18:35:02.930-05:002009-07-18T18:35:02.930-05:00Good post, I have no problem reading anyone&#39;s blog who tests anything for any money or not I just want their honest opinion and if they get paid all the more power to them...<br /> <br />Cheers,<br /><br />Dorothy from grammology<br />grammology.comDorothyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03181570769074774554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-52027492750336348842009-07-18T09:28:08.452-05:002009-07-18T09:28:08.452-05:00great insight!Jasminehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11615848015233623084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-82175471016040202582009-07-17T21:06:38.382-05:002009-07-17T21:06:38.382-05:00Your absolutely right. I don&#39;t mean to offend when I say this. But if they are so tired and want a break why ask every one to do it too. Each person should know there limits. I too have turned down reviews that I just don&#39;t think I would like or just don&#39;t have the time to do. I love blogging as it&#39;s my way to reach out to the world. I have made many good friends and to me that is more worth it then anything! ;)a49erfangirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11893531320207632602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-77741738663030994442009-07-17T16:14:53.889-05:002009-07-17T16:14:53.889-05:00you said it perfect!

You really hit the spot. I don&#39;t even bother with the ones doing contests or giveaways. If they start after I&#39;m already reading their blogs, then I just drop them. I want to read, not do contests and give away&#39;s. Every now and then is alright but every day or every week, it&#39;s a bit much.AFlowerWithoutANamehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15194068390589005415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7199465891304048105.post-63798984138954021722009-07-17T12:09:16.917-05:002009-07-17T12:09:16.917-05:00we all have got to do what we love doing.Mike Golchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14472496241893921107noreply@blogger.com
