Not Posting is the New Posting
Let me ask you this question:How often do you check a blog that posts infrequently? Once a week? Twice? Daily?
I posit this possiblity: Let's assume you're a daily checker. Let's assume I actually post sometimes. Maybe when I don't post, you're inclined to check back the next day. "Maybe he'll post tomorrow," you think to yourself. Maybe I will. What happens when I post? "Yes! A post! I'll read, comment, and consider my day more complete."
But then the next day comes. Oh, the next day! Do you check my blog the next day? I suggest that you won't.
It's like how in college, everyone shows up the class before the test, but for the class after the test... ghost town.

Oh Melody, you're too kind! To suggest that I deserve a separate category, that I have indeed risen above the muck is flattering to say the least.
Let's not forget Skinner's work with accidental conditioning. Aside from leading to early forms of religion (possibly), how might it play into the Wheatspot? If I wasn't so tired, I'd continue this banter, but alas, I am.

Nevermind.
I think this whole blog thing would be vastly improved if one could get a listing of posts which have been recently commented on. Why this isn't available as a common feature on blogger, I can't imagine. It should be simple to impliment and would make me happy...so there.
