I saw that someone commented about someone in their family now reading their blog so it was wierd and it made me think....
Who reads your blog? Is it mostly family and friends or is it more for your scrapping buds? Do you want/allow your family to read it?
My blog is mostly for my family and friends to keep up with our lives and adventures while we're on the other side of the world. But since scrapping... it's also a place to share my layouts. And I love it when anybody stops by.

I have 2 blogs...one for "business" and one for my friends and family to read. Although, sometimes my friends read my scrapping one as well. I do get comments on my blog, but don't really know who or how many people read it.

My family reads my blog and so do my friends and scrappin buds. I get comments every day from my mom and MIL. I know hubby reads it daily when he gets to work because he always mentions it when he gets home.

I have no problems sharing with the world. If I feel it is too private to share, I simply just don't share. I have a private blog on my computer for private stuff.
My online blog is to share most of what goes on in our lives, what I think of what is going on around the world, and share my digiscrapping journey with others.
I don't mind who reads my blogs, but I do mind what people say. If you don't agree with me, that is fine. You can leave your comments, but I DO NOT like it when people get nasty and vulgar with me or others on my blog. That is where I draw the line.

Mostly my scrapping buds read my crafty blog. Random people seem to read my 'Rambling' blog, which can be a bit weird but I put it out there, so I should expect it. My family is not very techie. I don't think they could find either of those blogs unless I pointed them out to them. I started blogging originally as a way to keep them updated on DS1 but I always had to send them emails telling them there was an update on the blog to get them to read it. I don't think any of my IRL friends, except one, have ever even visited my blog.

I started my blog with the intent of keeping friends and family updated. It looked like fun and a better way than e-mailing photos to everyone. They could just come and stop in and see what's happening more often. I know that I have some friends and family that stop in, but they almost NEVER leave comments. I do have digi friends and ds friends that stop in and do comment. My blog has gotten less and less about the daily happenings and more about what layouts I've just done. I just can't seem to get to it to update and still do everything else I want and need to do done, KWIM? And by the time I do sit down to update it, I've forgotten all the cute little daily things that have happened. LOL!
Rachel - I do read your blog! I have it and many (ha! understatement!) more in my bloglines. Bloglines is such an awesome time saver, but it also makes it so very easy to just breeze by without leaving a comment. I'm so guilty of doing that lately - "oh - I'll come back later when I have time and leave a comment!" but then I forget! Ugh!

I don't know, LOL...one IRL friend of mine does for sure. My family, nah, they're not really techies. Some of my more loyal customers and some of my digi friends do and a few extras when I put up a freebie like I did today, LOL! Let me just say there's no danger of me bumping any of the top 100 digi blogs out of their spots on the chart! But, I enjoy it and a few people do read it, so that's all that matters...

I don't really pay attention to who comes to my blog. Like Rachel said, people just don't leave comments. But it is really weird to be with family and friends, and have them already know everything I want to tell them! Or to have them say, "I read in your blog..." Kind of weird. When I write, I don't actually think about anyone reading it who knows me IRL.
I honestly don't know who I am directing my blog to. I guess if anyone comes to read, and they like it, I am happy!

Of course:-) I have most of yours bookmarked and *try* to comment at least every few weeks.
Family, friends, scrapping buddies and random people read mine. I don't care who does so long as they don't get offended at what I write since it is my place to spill my feelings.
