They just call it evil, and that makes it okay. It's not. I don't like it either when you find a site that is just comprised of nothing but paid posts. You can usually tell these creeps apart from the good bloggers. I love the funny ones, too. I don’t like it when bloggers are just in it for the cash…and they have no shame about it either.

It all comes down to selfishness and caah, and it amazingly deteriorates the community aspect of blogging. Making money online is actually EASIER with a static site and not a blog, so this sudden movement toward kids hoaring one-way links is insane. My personal pet peeve is reading a blog that has a lot of paid postings without *quality* content inbetween. I am ALL FOR getting compensated to blog, seriously. It benefits the blogger, the advertiser and the readers. BUT, in between posts about diet pills and budgeting software, I don't want to see a 50 word post about how bored someone is feeling or how they love their cat. Put some peraonality, detail and hear into it. I’m right there with you on being annoyed as all get out about the bloggers who are actually strongly against the DoFollow movement.

It sucks to see your sitemeter show all these numbers of visitors and then to see no comments. But, on the bright side, we're being read :) I agree, Sassy.

Just say hi. That's not too much to ask for ya know :) Lurkers here and there are ok, but when people come back over and over, I just want them to give a short hello.
