Blogging makes a difference

Posted on Jul 10, 2008 by CHESSNOID in blogging, mishmash | 3 Comments

The littlest things do make a difference.  I started this blog just over a year ago.  To me, it is my online journal that allows me to revisit where my thoughts were on a specific date in my life.  Lately, I have been getting many comments and emails from different people on different subjects.  I love the comments about the shows we share together.  Even though we don’t physically watch it together, the experience of watching the show bonds us fans together.

On my credit card articles, I was happy to get comments from others who have experienced the same indifference from the credit card companies cutting their credit lines.  I did get 2 emails from an Eric Dash from the NY Times and Michael J Moore from Bloomberg wanting to interview me more about the experiences I already blogged about.  This of course was nice in that it lets me connect to people I would definitely never meet in my daily life.  It was an honor speaking with these gentlemen.  Eric didn’t use any of my information for his stories but I hope I contributed in some way.  His article will definitely make a difference and help others.  The NY Times obviously gets more hits than me. LOL.  Michael seemed like a nice guy too.  I don’t know if he will use anything I said in his article, but I hope I was able to help him out too.  I really would never have imagined reporters having any interest of what I had to say on my blog.  I did get a comment from Liz too on the American Express posts.  She is looking to get sample letters from credit card companies who are chasing the balance on cards. So if you want her email address to send her that stuff, just drop me a line.  Of course, cross out your personal information for safety’s sake.  Hopefully, she will have resources to stop this type of credit card activity.

The reason why I started writing this blog was I deeply enjoyed reading other people’s blogs. This is my way of trying to give back to the blogging community and the virtual world.  I usually blog about the same stuff most of the time which makes it easier to write because its stuff I usually enjoy talking about.  Hopefully, you get inspired to blog about things you like to talk about because other people will enjoy reading it.

Thanks again for stopping by.  I do appreciate it. Cheers, ;)

    I would appreciate it if you could write more MMA. Unlike you, I like to watch my sports with audio on. Thank you very much.
