I like the way you write Rhys. I would like to read a mix of both blogging and personal and useful stuff.

I like a mixture of both. I’m considering blogging about blogging, just so I can reflect on all the kazillion blogs I read!

I like number 3 too.
I really like to hear your funny stories about how exciting colwyn bay is and I think you have an authoritative way of doing blogging about blogging posts

oh, well done on the successful completion of your charity run too

Yep I’m with 3, too much meta-blogging a bit of a turn off, but none kinda misses out on the point of reading someones blog who’s so techie. I’d say 3 out of 5 personal.

I should blog more, but I am useless

I personally love to blog about the mundane stuff in my life, and I love to read posts in a similar vein. When people go on about “getting more traffic” and “SEO” stuff (which I still don’t really understand) I kind of scan over it and move on.

My blog is prolly dull as dishwater to most people, but I keep going because I know that I get people checking it daily, people that wander in to see what I am up to and suchlike.

The more personal a blog, the more I enjoy reading, so my vote would be for #1.

However.

This is your blog, and you should do what you like. If you love doing the “other stuff” then do that as well. So I think the better choice would be #3. That way, those of us that like the personal stuff are happy, and those that like the blogging stuff are happy.

Just remember, you can’t please all the people all the time. But f’k em

I gotta say I am enjoying the more personal blogs more than the blogging about blogging but then the odd few posts about blogging are a good read, maybe a 70-30 mix in favour of personal?

I don’t care, I’ll read either as long as it’s done well. :p

I say old school blogging. I find it interesting, especially because it is a lifestyle on the other side of the ocean. It is somethin different. Blogging about blogging like adsnese and the like, I tend to tune out because I have no interest in it.

Well i read to see what you’ve been upto and hear your funny stories - it’s like keeping in touch coz even though it’s a long time since i last saw you, it doesn’t feel long coz i can see how you are on here.

Isn’t that what blogging was? Web-logging your life for others to see? Or did i miss the point of it? Computers ain’t my strong point. : )

Are you allowed to mix posts? If your were writing about another blogger it might prompt a fun tale from your life?
