Your Civic Duty
I was going to blog about something real today, like how this is what my apartment looks like:

…but I’m tired from the move and two days of unpacking.
So I thought I’d conduct a totally unscientific survey. Ever wonder what people like about your blog? I do all the time, usually when I’m lying in bed at night weeping with worry that you guys will all leave me.*
Anyhow, I’d love for you to fill out this survey about what you love and hate about blogs. I promise I won’t keep the results a secret. I’ll use them to make my blog better, and I’ll share them with you so you can do the same. Win-win.
If you don’t have a blog? You can sleep easy knowing you’ve done your part in making my blog better. And isn’t that your ultimate goal?
Also, each time a reader fills out this form an angel gets his wings.** I’m not OK with denying angels their wings, but if you are …
Leave any additional comments about blog reading in the comments.
*Yes, I do this.
**It’s a Wonderful Life anyone? Anyone?

I can’t stand spelling errors on blogs. There is one blog I look at from time to time that is pretty well known and sponsered up the wazoo and I can’t tell you how many spelling errors they are. If blogging is your full time job and you can support yourself doing it, you can spend 5 seconds to hit spell check.

Uh, I mean “there are” not “they are”. I knew it, I knew the minute I said something about spelling errors I would make some gross error myself.

holy monkeys you have a lot of unpacking to do!!!! I actually really like unpacking. It’s the initial packing that I don’t like.
I’m super spell-check dependent these days… but at least I use it!

I’m a terrible speller so I rely on m-w.com. I’m not sure it matters whether or not you know how to spell–just that you check!

Such a great idea to get feedback! I admit I find typos in my blog and then go back and update them after I publish. I really just need to learn to be more patient in my writing process than I currently am.
Also – I am torn on the dark background. I read things discouraging this before creating my blog, but for some reason I just like it. Guess I just need to work harder on writing better to keep readers around!

I can’t wait to see the results too! I think we will all learn a lot. And I have seen It’s a Wonderful Life twenty time so caught that right away.
