Oh, but I actually put up two posts today. So – pot calling the kettle black and all that.

I’ve gotten into the routine of posting every day (mostly) Monday through Friday, and a review post on Saturday. Sunday is my day off!

I’ll admit – I sometimes get overwhelmed when people blog more than once a day. Especially when it’s someone who I particularly like and want to read (ahem!)!!

June, I hate Saturdays too! It seems silly, as my husband is around to “help” with the kids, although that rarely seems to happen. Saturdays are lonely days for me too, and the fact that the blog slows down to almost a dead stop doesn’t help either.

We both need to get a life, by the sounds of it!

You told me to post every day, so I usually do. If I feel really not funny, I do not post. But I’ll bet I post 362 days out of the year, easy. Perhaps I am the only one who thinks I am funny 360 days out of those 362 posts, tho!

You know what I hate? Saturdays. I finally have a day off, and I feel like I am funny on Saturdays, and no one reads me. Well, by “no one” I mean I get about 465 readers on Saturdays, so maybe I should shut up. And hours and hours go by with no comments. Oh, Saturdays are lonely days for me.

Maybe I should get a life. You think?

I think it depends on why you are blogging. I post 3-4 times a week on average, I think. I’m here for the community and honestly, I find it easier to keep up with blogs that post less than every day and I have stopped reading some blogs that post too often.

But you are right that it is the content that counts, not the number (too few or too many) posts!

I find that it is becoming increasingly more difficult to come up with interesting and unique post. So rather than offering mediocre posts I now post when I actually have something to share that I find interesting. Loyal readers will check back.

I seem to go through cycles. Right now, recovering from surgery, I’m not posting much. I can’t even seem to tweet.

I find I post more often when I participate in carnivals, but the posts aren’t very personal.

I also struggle with revealing too much of myself or not wanting to hurt the feelings of readers who might know me in “real life.”

I need to just get over it.

I post daily on my family blog and 3 to 4 times a week on my book blog. The book blog has two consistant posts Every tuesday and Friday and the reviews fill the spaces between. I figure since one can really only read so many books…this site does not need a daily post but I also agree consistancy is key!

I love your posts even when their are 4 a day – I come and comment when I have something to say but I read them, trust me I READ THEM ALL!

And once again we have a winner in you Jo-lynne.

Thanks for this post. I became a 31DBBB dropout when the issue came to posting intentional content that informed and educate.

I keep hearing in my head comments from friends like, “why don’t you talk about your kids more??”

And I discover people listen to my ramblings after all!

Ok. Off to ramble some more good quality and consistent ramblings.
