		<description>Chris,

Great tips! I&#039;ve often wondered about using comments on other blogs to attract more readers to my own blogs (both my personal blog, which is an indirect marketing tool for my creative writing; and the corporate blog I&#039;m going to be setting up as part of my day job), but I&#039;ve never really given it a try.

It&#039;s a relatively simple thing to do, and you&#039;ve provided some good reasons to give it a go.

Cheers,

Adam</description>

Some of them I&#039;m already doing, though my blog is relatively new on the rss feed train.

		<description>What a great post! Personally, its commenting that led me to finally start a couple of blogs of my own. But no matter how much blogging I do I know I&#039;ll keep on commenting because I think I&#039;d get a little lonely in my echo chamber without it :-)</description>

As for developing my Blogger&#039;s Eye, it getting a little late at night [here in Perth, Australia], for that one!

		<description>What a web of blogs is out there. As a new blogger, I&#039;m amazed at how quickly we travel around the world on cyber wings. There&#039;s a zig zag route that led me here. Of course I had to leave a comment based on the topic, but also because that&#039;s what I do anyway. Nice to see my instinct confirmed.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s why I recommend it. Had I not gone through other sources, I doubt we&#039;d be communicating right now.

The home page defines Squidoo as &quot;1) thousands of people creating a handbuilt catalog of the best stuff online 2) a free and fun way to make your own page and get traffic 3) a place to find what you&#039;re looking for, fast.&quot; Squidoo was founded by Seth Godin, a brilliant authour and entrepreneur (who has spoken to Google, Disney, Wal-Mart, and many others). I admire the guy a lot. 

I&#039;m only suggesting this so you can have more ways to effectively get your informative message across. Thanks.</description>
