Comment Your Balls Off!

I came across this great idea from Danny over at Dad Gone Mad called Operation: Comment Your Balls Off (or boobs depending on your gender). The post made me laugh and inspired me to create my very first blog button.

I am such a geek that I am totally grooving on learning all of the code. (Thanks to Jenieshell for demystifying the process!) Interestingly, the hardest part was constructing the scroll box under the button so others could get the code and use the button.

Anyhoo, the idea is that in these uncertain economic times, rather than give gifts to your bloggy friends, give them crack LOTS OF COMMENTS. Isn't that what we are in this for anyway? Well, you know, apart from that whole sharing your voice with the world thing. The Operation will run from now through the beginning of the new year.

I am typically more of a lurker than a commenter, but I have resolved to make at least five to ten comments per day. It only takes a second, and can really make someone's day. As for me, I love evidence that people are reading what I have to say. I just uploaded a follower's widget yesterday, and am THRILLED to have three followers already. (Thanks Dana, Mel and Meglyn! You made my day!)

  1. LOL -- that button is hilarious!!!! I wonder if I can put it up without making my mom mad . . . lol. Yes, I'm 30 but my mom is still the inner voice in my head. ;)

  2. Rachel - you must assert your independence sometime! Do it, girlfriend! LOL

    Rae Ann - PLEASE tell me how you did your button. I'm trying to figure out the whole button thing for my own blog! How do you put in the code for people to grab? I'm so button illiterit (and I can't spell it either!)

I am a comment junkie.
Thank you for feeding my habit.
