Thank you for reading!

Too much of any one thing isn’t good, I’d be bored to death writing about software alone. :)

I still read nearly everything you post about (which is more than nearly any other blog in my feed reader).

Personally I like the app reviews rather than online service reviews / commentary – but that’s my slant / preference…

You get lots of comments because you write engaging and interesting posts and no-one should blame you for increasing the monetization of the blog…

Keep it up!

Will do. :) Thank you for visits, comments and always including me in digest posts at your blog!

Keep ‘em coming; which I know you will. Your blog is one of my daily stops.

Another confession – I cheat with comments. :) If there was long time since previous comment by someone – I look it up and refresh in my memory what were we talking about then.

On text boxes – they are low contrast, but should be visible fine. Maybe you should check monitor settings? I know first hand how crappy settings can make you completely miss subtle contrast details.

I am not too good with forms (rarely need them) so it means I will have to read up and get it better in new theme.

Btw now that i’m writing this i noticed a minor thing about the site. the text boxes are really hard to see, i have to look real close to see where to put the mouse cursor to start typing. It’s the really thin lines on a white background…

Still you always leave great comments on posts that do interest you. :) I think nowadays it is easier to follow blogs with content you are only partly interested in – RSS, filtering tools and such.

@Sandrina

It amazes me that blogs actually became alike and boring. Too many people treat it like a job and write about things they have no real interest in. Re-phrasing that anecdote “98% of bloggers give rest a bad name” :)

I am quite good and gifted at ignoring trends and boring social expectation (some people don’t really like that about me :) so it’s only natural that my blog is genuine.

@kelltic

I’ve read that regular visitors start to ignore design completely. Guess it is indeed too plain if there is “boring” emotional response lingering in long time readers.

I do not say that some posts are better than other. It’s just that it is easy to see what search crowd likes – analytics give hard numbers on that. But it is trickier to figure out what daily readers enjoy and it is not a crowd that deserves to be disappointed – mistake many blogs make, blinded with search traffic.

As for friendliness – it comes easier for me online. Some people choose to be jerks online because they can. I choose to be more friendly, because people online is less likely to screw with me and it’s not like they can much.

Yeah, it took some months to settle with that structure. But when I did it really clicked with me and made posts easier to write and more coherent.

I’d say my posts balance between quantity and quality. I could go for longer and more detailed posts, but such are likely to burn me out for few days after. So I prefer consistent mid-range post. After all I can alway post again to explain things in additional details.

Again, thank you all for reading and awesome comments! :) I honestly fail to remember many places online where people bother with such long and thoughtful replies all the time.

What I like?
1) I like when you post about freeware.
2) Your posts are always very structured, easy to follow.
3) One post a day.
4) You answer all comments.
5) You stay true to yourself.
6) Your posts are about quality, not quantity.

What I don’t like? It is true that the theme is very plain… But on the other hand, too much is not good either.

Even if I don’t comment on all posts, I read them all.

As for design element, I agree wholeheartedly with #8, rvdmast.

I can’t really address the content of your posts. Some topics interest me, some do not. How could it possibly be otherwise? We all have different interests and we have different levels of technical savvy. I’ve used computers for a very long time but without digging too deeply into their workings. I’m good with applications, poor with the intricacies of OSes (Is that a word?). I read what applies to me specifically or what is within the range of my capabilities and understanding.

One of the things I like most about your site is that it’s friendly.

I like this blog because it is different from other blogs.
It is more, how to say, hm, independent!
Keep up the good work!
