What kind of reader are you?

Do you read a lot of blogs or just a few? Do you subscribe to RSS feeds or do you visit each site individually? Do you leave comments or tweet with your favorite bloggers? Do you just visit and read blogs from A-listers or do you check out the little guys?

Interact with the bloggers that you read, don’t forget that this is a two-way communication medium - bloggers have soapboxes, not ivory towers - you can talk back at them, whether that is on your blog, their blog in the comments section, Twitter, or e-mail. Nothing warms (most) bloggers’ cold dead hearts like interaction with their readers.

Have a local friend that wrote something cool? Link to it - talk about it…it’s good for their ego (and your karma).

Example: My friend Dusty just wrote a post about how “coworking” is a verb and not a noun - something that has been bugging me for a while.

Later on this week I am going to do a promotion to (shamelessly) bribe my three readers to tell their friends to read my blog - so stay tuned for that!
