Entry: Shameless huckstering and self-promotion

Norwegianity engages in Norwegianity: Shameless huckstering and self-promotion:

Norwegianity is, quite simply, the cheapest therapy available to me. My conversational ranting, road rage, and compulsive swearing (not necessarily the same as ranting) have all tapered off as a result of blogging (one “fuck” in print is worth 100 verbal curses— I know, I’ve counted while my g’friend had a blood pressure cuff on me).

Have you considered enabling comments on your site, MG? It's easier to build traffic if you invite other people to join in the fun.

Yes, we did consider it but rejected that option for several reasons, comment spam chief among them. I'm also on a server that has never hosted a blog before, and they had security concerns about the spam issues and hackers.


Maybe sometime later, but mostly right now I'm focused more on promoting causes and issues near and dear as opposed to creating dialogue (although I certainly hope some things I post will encourage readers to talk about those issues with their friends).
