I kind of think it is okay ...I don't know, either! I kind of think it is okay just to read their comments and appreciate they wrote them, without feeling obliged to respond in any way in particular. But, I may be WAY off base.<br /><br />If someone leaves a question for you in the comment section, I think it is probably up to them to revisist your comment section a few days later to see if you have answered them...but, when it is just a comment that doesn't NEED a response, I, personally, think it is fine to just read it, appreciate what was expressed and go on. If you were socially obligated to reply to every comment, you would eventually find yourself too bogged down to blog! (I am thinking here of some of the blogs I enjoy following that regularly get 80 or more comments left on every single post. Those blog owners can't possibly respond to each and every comment individually or they would never have time left to write future posts!)<br /><br />So, I for one, give you permission to read MY comments without feeling like you need to respond in any way. Reading them is response enough!<br /><br />(Let me place this disclaimer, though...I am fairly new at blogging myself and as such I am no expert on the subject!)<br /><br />~MonicaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25678661.post-1165635086637509452006-12-08T19:31:00.000-08:002006-12-08T19:31:00.000-08:00Good question Vivian.

If somebody comments on my blog, I like to comment back to them, but if there is no email posted on a blog, I cant always do it. So I try to respond to their blog but some people dont have blogs. It's a tough call, but I have dont your idea of commenting on that person's blog if they have no email address to respond to.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660761635166286074noreply@blogger.com
