Besides the experiences (which I voed for), I look forward to the style and content. I dont like reading blogs where people regularly write about what they watched on tv – it’s a dull experience for me. However, if a debate or opinion is raised on any blog (like it frequently is over here ), I will be in, and I am ready to take part.

Thats what I look for and read the blogs which I religiously follow.

I read blogs for a variety of reasons, a bit of all the things you listed in the poll. Another reason is that some people read my blog and leave comments, and so I read theirs, too. Even in the blogosphere we need to be polite. Granted, the people with whom I have developed a blog-relationship would be those whose blogs speak to me at some level as mine must do to theirs.

Astute post. My wife used to read a bunch of environmental blogs. They told her to save energy and to try to not hurt the environment so much.

That was all well and good, but the most successful ones would fly around the country and print disposable books. They continued to talk about how th earth was going to collapse next week and that we must not do anything frivolous.

My wife got angry about this because they were really living it up while telling people to live a life of deprivation. So she stopped reading the blogs.

Its more of all of the reasons in the poll…
Some are entertaining, some give me news, some have the same experiences as me, some speak about stuff that interests me, and others are just attractive in the way they present a particular idea or thought.

It differs from blog to another really. That’s the beauty of the blogsphere!
