		<description>Shane, it is more than just sharing, it is actually reaching out to others and sharing. Doing so makes a blog more dimensional and more successful- basic social media practice.

I love to leave comments when I can... one of the things on occasion I do on Twitter is reach out and tweet on my stream asking people to share their most recent blog post so I may drop by and read. It allows the person to promote their blog, and get any feedback. Also, I get to read something I do not normally see or may not have seen yet.</description>

		<description>I could not agree more with you. I mean surely people can&#039;t be so self absorbed that all they want to read and share all day is their own stuff.

Beautiful colours and artwork, I really like it.

Cheers

		<description>Yes definitely.. it makes it far more welcoming. I will have to check the site out that you listed. Sounds like something I can feature. I like to hear about sites that do that. :)</description>

		<description>I do like to leave comments with others. My only annoyance is seeing &#039;I like your layout,&#039; which is something that you should just send in the contact form or leave in a guestbook unless the post is on the site&#039;s layout.</description>

		<description>Thanks to rss feeds I&#039;m able to spot and read my favourite blogs with out having to visit them all the time to see if they have written a new post. I do find I comment on some sites more then others because of how they react with their readers. IE do they come to your site and comment instead of just replying to what you said on their own site. 

Every Friday Netchick.Net does a meet and greet where you visit the person who commented before you and leave them a comment on their latest blog post (well I try and relate to the post.. most don&#039;t)</description>
