That is I am going to look around the blogs tha I care about and say which ones of those aren&#8217;t updated often enough, or haven&#8217;t been updated lately.  Heck, I&#8217;ll just say something about all the blogs that I care about.  Those are personal blogs.  Those are blogs that are under &#8216;Persona&#8217; category, linked to from my right sidebar. Those are people I know personally.  And those are blogs I read with my first cup of coffee in the morning.  Let&#8217;s see how they are all doing:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/alex.mamtchenkov.net\/\">My brother<\/a> is a sporadic blogger.  He writes two or three posts a day and then goess silent for three weeks or a month.  <strong>His last post is from a week ago.<\/strong>  Will it be two more weeks before we hear from him again?<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.yudichev.net\/\">Alexey Yudichev<\/a> has been <strong>silent for a week<\/strong> as well. (By the way, I&#8217;ve just updated your link, so your stats are somewhat gone.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/shvach.livejournal.com\/\">Andrey<\/a> blogs.  Not daily, but <strong>often enough<\/strong>.  (By the way, I&#8217;ve just updated your link too.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/kouloumbris.com\/weblog\">Constantinos<\/a> blogs about <strong>once a week or so<\/strong>.  Soon we&#8217;ll hear from him again. (Your link was updated too, though I liked the old one better.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/dimonf.wordpress.com\/\">Dmitry<\/a> is <strong>doing good<\/strong> for a newbie blogger.  The change to <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.com\">WordPress.com<\/a> was for a better.  And I like his writing style.  Keep it up, man!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/lanakurbatsky.blogspot.com\/\">Lana<\/a> turned out to be an excellent writer.  A pleasent surprise.  Rarely she writes though.  Pity.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shuvalov.com\/blog\/\">Lev<\/a> <strong>hasn&#8217;t blogged for nearly two month<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/abssssent.livejournal.com\/\">Maria<\/a>, it turns out, blogs using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\">LiveJournal<\/a>, and not the blog I&#8217;ve linked to from here.  (I just changed that.).  She <strong>blogs often<\/strong>.  With pictures.  And emotions.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stepanoff.org\/wordpress\/\">Michael<\/a> <strong>blogs plenty<\/strong>.  He also has a <a href=\"http:\/\/schiller.livejournal.com\/\">blog with LiveJournal<\/a>.  And he also maintains the <a href=\"http:\/\/smart-blog.org\/\">Smart Home blog<\/a> (and <a href=\"http:\/\/smart-blog.org\/ru\/\">in Russian<\/a> too).  Well done, Mike.  Keep it up!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/na-talie.livejournal.com\/\">Nataly<\/a> is a very busy person.  But she still finds time <strong>a couple of times a week<\/strong> to write short posts. (By the way, the link was old too.  Updated.)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/svyatogor.livejournal.com\/\">Sergey<\/a> posts <strong>pretty often<\/strong> to his LiveJournal.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/h.hazard.maks.net\/blog\/\">Vladimir<\/a> <strong>writes rarely<\/strong>.  Pity.  Because whenever he does, it&#8217;s interesting and informative.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/zinaida.mamchenkov.net\/\">My mother<\/a> is <strong>doing good<\/strong>.  She is still learning this thing called blogging.  And she is still trying to find her style and posting frequency.  But she&#8217;s working on it.  And she&#8217;s doing good.  I&#8217;m proud of you mom.  Keep going!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>See, there are a lot of people I care about.  I&#8217;ve even updated the link to your blog.  That&#8217;s like a good reason for you to write that one extra post.  You know, if you can&#8217;t think of something to write about, you can just say something like &#8220;Leonid just updated the link to this blog, and that&#8217;s why I am writing this.&#8221;  It&#8217;ll get going from there.  I promise.  Just try it.<\/p>\n<p>And after you done, remember, it&#8217;s a Nudge-A-Friend Day.  Check your blogroll, and post a complain to your blog about all the people who stopped blogging.  United together we can push the <strike>Earth<\/strike> blogosphere.<\/p>\n<p>Happy blogging.<\/p>\n<!-- google_ad_section_end -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<!-- google_ad_section_start -->\n<p>I&#8217;m going to call today a Nudge-A-Friend Day.
