The Blog hits???
 

Marg Pilkington made a joke a few weeks ago about the competition for most viewed blogs, between herself and me.

In the last day or so [since the compaint about me,] two of the blogs have recieved nearly double their number of views since they were started, resulting in mine being knocked off the numero uno spot.

I think it's hilarious, to think that someone may have spent their days and nights clicking away to dislodge me, but is there away to see who did it?

in the words of shaggy

it want me :)

Re: The Blog hits???
 

LOL,:)

It's worse than the payolla scandal in the US charts in the 5O's, people went down for that.

Re: The Blog hits???
 

It seems to have slowed down, if not stopped since this thread was posted!

How queer!:confused:

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Lol, I really don't think so, they [the two blogs,] have been getting hit on at the strangest times already!

Rindy Holmes uncovers another mystery.:)

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Maybe it’s just the simple fact that Mrs Pilkington’s bloggs are sometimes a bit more exotic in content……………….eh? Maybe, just a little?

I don’t always read bloggs. I find occasional interest in them, but on the all people’s life experience’s, moods and occasional whingeing hold nothing for me…of course I don’t mean to be critical or offensive with that statement but I find that enough get through into the forums to give a picture of what to expect in most of the commentary.

I suppose that I do find a slightly more of interest in peoples comment’s in response to the content, on the all they are almost always supportive which is nice and sometime it’s what they’re not saying “but perhaps should” that’s really enlightening.

I wouldn’t condemn this activity, it does serve a purpose I suppose, but you should understand “like I have all too often found out to my cost on this site” bear your soul and someone will always stick the boot in and open the door, its then the real “people of speculative birth right” lay in to you. But. It’s like anything else, if you ask for it, you’ll often get it……….

Your right Doug, it really doesn't matter.

Both Marg P. and I have wondered if it is a vanity thing writing a blog, perhaps it is.

Because I can't physically write a diary anymore, I use this instead.

I could of course have made it a private journal, but I admit I do enjoy the comments and pm's it results in, which have always been encouraging, sometimes received gladly when in in the depths of despair.

Re: The Blog hits???
 

The weird hits are still going on, on everyones journal except my own! Lol.

I think it's funny, but that's not why I write it. It isn't a competition, it's because I can't physically write a diary as I used to.

Anybody who bothered to read the comments as well, would know l'm an avid blog reader too, as well as writting my own, basically because I do find peoples experiences interesting, and I have the time.

Also the Marg P's blog in my opinion, is by far the best, and deserves to be at the number one spot in top blogs. If you haven't read it, and you want to read something that makes you smile, do it.:)

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Oh No Rindy........I thought it was just a mistake in the numbers........so the hit are for real are they.......?
And I get where you are coming from Doug.......reading blogs is not everyone's cup of tea, but I DO like to read of the experiences of other people.......sometimes it helps you make sense of what is going on in your own little world....or indeed sometimes it makes you grateful (read Shilelegh's blog). I far prefer to read someones blog that to watch Big brother. And if I bare my soul and someone puts the boot in then I can't complain.
I am totally honest in my blog and also in my comments and value honesty when others are commenting on my efforts.

I am really a thwarted writer.

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Mrs Pilkington you are a wonderful and considerate woman………….I see, understand and accept the value placed on bloggs by individuals and the good that can be derived from another’s good fortune or misfortune, what I wanted to get across is that when one as for whatever reason striped away the veneer or mystic that surrounds ones life you place yourself at the mercy of those that may seek to take advantage of that information be it to bully or to ridicule. Whatever your intention was, good, bad or indifferent, when you open the doors to ones personal life and the secrets there in you invite everyone even those that would hurt you……and once you have done that you have no defence…..

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Yes, Doug I understand your point. There is absolutely no mystique about me. My face is so readable I would make a pathetic poker player......and in my blogs I tell it like it is.
I am surprised you find them exotic though.......just ramblimgs....just ramblings.

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Did the greatest writers of our time, not on occasion ramble? Madam the proof is in the content and the minds eye of the reader. Those that read via visualisation will know what I mean. It’s the difference between enjoying the words has read or being within the pages…..

Re: The Blog hits???
 

The serialisation of the courtship was verging on the exotic, if not bodice ripping, and I along with all your fans, was gripped, especially because it had a happy ending when I was expecting a terrible motorbike accident or something down under.

Number One Marg P. fan Rindy. xxx

Re: The Blog hits???
 

What is this all about ???? Some No's ?? Top Blogger ???? Sad

Marg I am with doug on this I used to read Garindas Blogs but have not for ages, I did not used to read yours but have found them really engrossing since I found them, and enjoy reading them :)

Bit like looking at the Daily sport Ok for a quick look and laugh but gets boring, But I read the mail and others everyday.

Keep up the good work marg, and ignore any petty moanings

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Oh I intend to keep it up......I like writing.......so keep on reading.

Re: The Blog hits???
 

I am not bothered who is top of the list really......and the mention that Garinda was way ahead of me was in a PM....and was just a bit of fun.

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Like I said Marg deserves to be top in my opinion.:)

I take sad solace though, that mine is still the top of the most commented on journals.:)

Perhaps the viewer[s] who read the other blogs and doubled their hits in the last thirty six hours, didn't feel able to leave their name and comment?

Now that would really have been impressive!, Pmsl.;)

Re: The Blog hits???
 

I am ashamed to say that I have never even looked at the numbers..:o I didn't notice that they existed until I read this thread. As a regular blogger I enjoy writing it and as far as I'm concerned anyone can read it if they want to. I enjoy both Garinda and Marg P's blogs and a lot of writing goes into them.

The only thing that I don't like about the blogs is that you don't earn any ackers for doing it. On the other hand, if ackers were earned, some people would type any old tripe just to earn money.:D

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Tripe, tripe, tripe, moan, moan, moan.:D

Re: The Blog hits???
 

Ok since he's still banging away at it, the mystery hundred a night blog hitter is that naughty Simon, lol.;)

...and no cries of protest please, I've just watched him do it again, as well as confirmation from other sources, lol.

Are you going for my position of Marg P's number one fan???

Well tough, you'll have to fight me for the honour.
