Many of you commented on my post about Blogging is a Strange Thing. The observations seemed to have resonated with our fellow bloggers. Here is another “strange thing.”  Has this happened to you?

Writing Contest – “Just Do It Robin,” had a fair number of visits the day I posted it. Then, there was little or no activity for weeks. Starting five days ago the post has generated HUGE activity every day for no apparent reason. Why the sudden interest in it?

Why, why, why?

Can anyone explain this?

This blog is a few months old now and I have made these curious observations. What would you add to the list?

    • At times it feels like I am talking (writing) into space, and I’m left to wonder if anyone is listening (reading). How fun it is when the comments come rolling in.
    • Blog statistics are a cruel mistress. One day they are abysmal and the next, for no apparent reason, they soar. (Perhaps it is the writing you say?)
    • Again, for reasons I can’t explain, I have had dozens of visits from Viet Nam, Malta, Mongolia, and many other far off places.
    • I’ve made what I consider friends, even though we have never met.
    • It helped me reconnect with people who found me because of my blog.
    • More strangers follow and comment on my blog than do friends and family.
    • There are a lot of smart people out there with cool things to share, which makes it next to impossible to keep up with reading blog posts.
    • Bloggers are a friendly and supportive lot. At least they are in the blog circles I run in . . . maybe that wouldn’t be the case if I were reading/writing blogs on controversial subjects.
    • Bloggers make up a GIGANTIC small community.

I’ve learned helpful things from my fellow bloggers, viewed cool images/videos, and laughed out loud more times than I can count.

Thanks for making me laugh, scratch my head, and teaching so much.
