I read some of your older posts and its definitely worth it.<br /><br />Elizabeth: Thanks for dropping by. Yeah including links seem sensible but I am not too familiar with that. Nevertheless I do go back and read some of my favourite bloggers' initial phase posts.S.

I gave twitter's example only to highlight my point is that blog is very 'here & now'.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955245504822871562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205157387819958650.post-81179591091001512982009-10-23T06:42:52.764+05:302009-10-23T06:42:52.764+05:30I find Twitter limiting, though, Pushkaraj.

There are still people around who want to read blog posts, and what I do, Susan Deborah, is include links to pertinent earlier posts (don't know if many people click on them, but it does make it easier on the reader).Elizabeth Mahlouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00334700057953625321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205157387819958650.post-92038330914209562842009-10-23T01:58:03.339+05:302009-10-23T01:58:03.339+05:30Its a bit of futile exercise in my opinion. Blogs ...Its a bit of futile exercise in my opinion. Blogs are very much a personalized expression Just like a conversation, is always very 'here & now', a blog is likewise. If during a dialogue I have to refer to u what u said earlier, then either I have to remember it or else, I have ask you for it. In a blog u can make it a little easier for the reader by using widgets like recent posts, my favourites, most commented posts, etc. But that still does not stop a reader from being simply lazy.<br />Any blog is a 'just now' face of the blogger. If someone is REALLY interested in your older post' s/he will check the archive.<br />Plus, u may be a little behind times. Now tweets are eroding the blog world. Bloggers are complaining that since advent of twitter, people don't write as many comments these days. Twitter is micro-blogging, which is even more 'current.'Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955245504822871562noreply@blogger.com
