As my list of followers and blogs that I follow continues to grow, it becomes a daunting task to keep up with them all. <br /><br />I have a select group of blogs that I am sure to keep up on and comment on a regular basis.

For me, real life is creating all kinds of havoc with my regular writing and thus the only writing I can do is in the blogs. And even that is becoming spotty as well.<br /><br />And as you say, there is a lot of "I'll comment on yours if you comment on mine" out there. I have G. B.

When I do get time in front of the computer it's normally to write my own post because I'm so far behind on that too.

I have a small size core that I try to maintain with varying degrees of consistency, but overall, I enjoy all the blogs/bloggers that I visit on a daily/weekly basis.<br /><br />I enjoy lurking though, because although there are quite a few blogs that I enjoy reading, I don't feel comfortable with commenting on them.<br /><br />Lynn: I&#G.

On the other hand, I wouldn't give up my blogging friendships - I just feel that there's a limit to the number of meaningful blog relationships one can maintain.Sparkling Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799366562472325812noreply@blogger.com
