It is nice to have people read our blogs and leave comments. It is even better when they like us enough to link to our blogs.
Recently I have been commenting on interesting blogs. I do so because I think other members might find them interesting too. It also encourages people to keep blogging - especially when they are just starting out.
If I find a blog I think I will read often I link to it in my Firemind blog. I don't require a link back to my blog (ie - a reciprocal link). I want people to link to me if they enjoy reading me not just because I linked to them.
Bloggers have started linking to 2 Lazy 2 Blog. I wanted to say thanks to them and provide an easy way to find them. I thought a
Our Friend's Blogs section in our sidebar would be cool. I discussed this with some members and they agreed it was a good idea.
We won't trade links or link to just anyone. The blogs we link to have to be recommended by a member and not offensive or 'adult oriented'. They should also have a link to us. The blogs also have to be reasonably current - we don't like dead links.
The reason I say "They should also have a link to us" is simple. Some of our members struggle to keep their own blogs and participate here. Linking to nonmember blogs can draw readers away from the blog for a time. I want people to come back and read what we write.
Any of our blog friends can become members of this blog.
