Is this thing on??

I was talking yes actually talking, like in person, with a fellow blogger the other day and we discovered we have a common problem.  I thought quite a bit about it and decided to share it with you because I will bet that many others have the same thing happening.  We are not sure anyone is really out there!  I know I can see my page hits yadda, yadda, yadda keep going up, but no one ever makes a comment or even uses the very easy buttons at the bottom of the page.  See them? Right down there, at the bottom. I will wait while you scroll down and look, (Examining week old manicure that has started to chip and peel, Oh your back) See the buttons that say Like, Funny, Interesting, They are a very easy way for you to make an anonymous comment.  I know we have become a society of lurkers. Yes I said it! You are a lurker, it sounds kind of sinister when you say it out loud. (Go ahead do it now) What it means, is we drift through blogs and web pages at the speed of light and read most of it, if there are not too many words, but few respond and give any feedback.  Like I said I can see my page hits go up and Blogger is great about analyzing it for me, what countries are viewing, what time of day, what browser people use, but I would like just a bit more human contact.  I know it is not just my mother logging in to check up on me, actually she got her first laptop last week and has yet to figure out how to get to my blog, it will happen. I do know my DH reads it because after the first couple of weeks when I would quiz him on something I wrote he had an answer.  I really don't expect a great philosophical debate to take place here but just a bit of feedback from someone would be constructive to know I am not just putting things out there for my health.  OK my rant is over!  I will also try to do better at this myself, I am not one to leave many comments either. I will make this promise to you, I will attempt to do better if you do.  Even though we are mostly anonymous voyeurs (another word that can have a sinister wring to it), we can take 1.5 seconds out of our busy lives and hit the LIKE button.
