A New Voice
Well, his voice is not new to some of you who may have gone to church or house church with him or to some of you who may have been able read some of his writing. Nonetheless, his voice is new to the blogosphere, and he has made a stong entry with a steady stream of quality entries. I commend to you the cleverly named blog of George Faithful, Faithfool. You have to love a blog which has a pun in its very title.
Be sure to check out several introductory posts here and here. And there is poetry, subtly perceptive and wistfully imaginative.
And, from today, there is this....
"How am I to live out that love? In blatant defiance of what makes me happy and in earnest pursuit of what makes me whole. Love is not about me doing what I want, but about me sacrificing myself in order to do what I know is right. True love has everything to do with justice, social and otherwise. May it be done, though the heavens fall!"

Neil,
i noticed on the st louis blogs site that you are one post away from the 400 posts mark. Are you going to do something special like a retrospective of the Dassler Effect's greatest hits?

Hey Neil & Blog Buddies,
Hey is it possible that once you have built a Stlouisblog or different one-somewhere else (wordpress, etc), that you can move that site- all of your postings/comments/photos?
Is that difficult?
I'm just thinking that StLblogs have such low traffic. Only a few people comment a day on the STL. And it's mainly NCFers. Maybe a different host would be better?
What do yall think? *jenny
Meanwhile, check out my new site...

Jenny, generally one can more all one's posts from one platform to another, and I am pretty sure you could do that if you migrated to Wordpress. I do not know that will help with getting more traffic, however, though I am not entirely sure about that. I don't know that moving alone would really change the comment situation,though.
To build up traffic you can register your site with someone like blogexplosion.com, though, to earn free credits for your site to be seen, you have to surf blogs, speding 30 seconds at each one at least. It is really quite a cool system. There are other sites where one can register one's blog as well.
Another way to potentially boost traffic is to visit lots of blogs (preferably of people with similar interests to your own) and leave comments. Now, this can come across as rather rude and annoying if that is the only reason you are visiting someone's blog, but if you are genuinely interested, I think that is a totally fine way to build up interest in your blog.
I hope this helps.
