Comments on: Who reads blogs? http://blog.zrmt.com/2008/04/18/who-reads-blogs/ A man who knows when enough is enough will always have enough -- Liao Tsu Wed, 20 Aug 2008 15:26:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Peter Lewis http://blog.zrmt.com/2008/04/18/who-reads-blogs/#comment-142 Peter Lewis Fri, 18 Apr 2008 08:48:43 +0000 http://blog.zrmt.com/index.php/2008/04/18/who-reads-blogs/#comment-142 Interesting post. I often think about this, which has encouraged me to implement / import a few rudimentary statistic gathering methods on my own blog, such as my little map, <a href="http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/maps.php?url=http://petesodyssey.org)" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I originally started blogging just because I quite liked writing, rather than for anyone else. I think this is still mainly true, though I do like the feedback that I get on some of the musings I post on there. At first, I did know pretty much every reader - they were my friends - but my stats now have risen beyond that. Indeed, the map widget shows people all over the world, from Japan to Iran, South Africa to the Azores reading it at least once. As for whether any of those are regular readers, I'm not sure. Though I'm not sure that matters - it's not a novel :-) Interesting post.
