Why you should sometimes comment on my posts

Just a little "info".

I really don't know who reads my blog. Some people post comments sometimes, so I know that they come by from time to time. Some have told me before that they read my blog. Some used to read and post comments, but now that they no longer post comments, I have no idea whether they are still reading. And some...well, some come and go quietly, and then one day when we're talking, they say "oh, I saw this-and-this on your blog". And I'm like "oh, so you read my blog".

Of course, this is not to say that you should post comments. No pressure. This is just to give you some reasons to post them, if ever you are saying to yourself that it's pointless. (and by the way, I read all comments, even if I sometimes don't reply...I can't find something to say every time!)

Sometimes it's so quiet I wonder whether I am talking to myself, or whether some people are listening. I would post most of this anyway, even if no one were reading it. But it would be a little different. Like...I wouldn't have to bother translating anything. If I write one sentence half in English, half in French, with a Malay word thrown in, I wouldn't bother writing the translations/explanations in brackets or as footnotes if no one were reading. I wouldn't bother either with the short notes at the beginning of "useless" or ranting posts. And so on and so on.

Also, comments would let me know what kind of things more people find interesting...things that I should "tell you" more about.

So, see ya ;) Don't be a peeping Tom, show yourself! :P
