This was a great read! Although my co-workers may think I’ve completely lost it as I’m sitting in my cube laughing at the code I’m supposedly working on, it’s well worth it! ;-)

I was a little worried until I read “A blog snob doesn’t come out and say “Hey, look at me! I’m super-important!”” Whew! I am obviously no blog snob, thank god: I say that ALL THE TIME!

LOL…brilliant post!

I stumbled across this in a mission to find something that gently puts the
finger on blog-snobbery, my current pet peeve. I know this is meant to
be tongue-in-cheek, but I have to admit it’s pretty close to what I’ve actually seen and experienced.

Sarven also makes a good point about the passive-agressive approach
that some readers sometimes take…refusing to leave a comment, and so making the author feel like a complete goon. (The bizarre thing about this,
is it’s often close friends and family that do this in my experience.)

Thanks for making me laugh! :)

After reading this, I think every blogger is a snobber. So haven’t you thought the way out : how not-to-be a snobber?

Then I think that would be most difficult stuff to do. Some tips for it :

1) Deactivate all social bookmarking buttons on your blog.
2) Don’t give your RSS
3) Reply to every comments and even spammers
Ahh I forgot, don’t use things like Akismet. Let everybody come and make you feel you’re not a snobber : Spammers. Make sure to reply to them.
4) Display your email in big bright colour somewhere on the frontpage and next to it : I’m going to reply to every of your mails even you spammers who you send me lots of links.

what more for not being a snobber? That really needs some deep thoughtful thinking ;)

Too funny that post, really great.
