Hopefully, if I can figure this question out, it would help me better serve my readers and to better explain the concept of blogging to those that are not familiar with it.   I've been trying to explain the concept a lot this week as a precurser to sending out invitations to join.  horse scratching cats back

I normally sleep good at night.  Last night I woke up in the middle of the night and found myself thinking about AR.  I wanted to log on and get my fix. 

In part, I felt bad about not responding to the people that commented yesterday before went to bed, but I didn't get home until late. 

I questioned why a really good friend of mine invited me to yahoo messenger, Truila, Facebook etc. but not AR.  It is my understanding he could have gotten points for referring me. 

Yesterday morning, I took this picture, thinking I could ask, "Who is going to Scratch your back?" The words to follow just never popped into my mind.   This morning, I'm thinking about how a year ago, I bought a book on blogging and wasn't really sure what it was about, but I was hearing blogging was something that would impact the future much like the Internet.  I didn't make time to read it, but I will be doing so in the very near future - like this weekend.  Blogging isn't even in the dictionary or part  of the spell check programs. 

In a moment, I'll pry myself away from AR because I've got to go to the feed store to buy horse feed and wood shavings before it starts raining.  I can easily spend 3 hours at a time reading posts and profiles on AR.  The information and the people are great.  I love the different view points, the comments, the things that warm your heart and/or uplift you.  But, I can find those in other places also.  What is different about AR?  Why is it addictive?

Hi Sondra,

Gary said it perfectly!  I would to know about the cat and the horse--are they good friends?  That is just the cutest picture.

AR would  be less addictive for me if I was busy SELLING HOMES.

Sondra,

I found my way to this group early on and I believe this is what hooked me to Active Rain.

Also the SEO and Internet expertise for free is a blessing too.

I just love this group you meet people that actually seem to care when you don,t see them for a couple of days you get worried. I know its probably not possible but stay off for a week or so and see how many emails you get just checking to see if your ok. And we are fellowshiping with other Christians which pleases the Lord. This group is blessed and I,m glad you became a part of it.

God Bless You

Sondra, I got your email. What happened with stress? I want to read it again. Is this a ploy to make me want something I can't have? Huh, huh? It worked. I really enjoyed reading it and you are in my saved blogs but then Poof you disappeared. Wrong. Who talked you into that girl? By the way, I love the photo of those two. Thanks for that. Deb

Why is AR so Addictive?Well for different reasons to different people... Some like yourself like the connection, exchange of ideas and helpful informations. Others (like so many in the AR community) is the ego trip to the top ranking on AR board and others for the simply reason of promoting their business and get high ranking on search engines (Google...etc)

It is room for everybody.
