>> This idea came to mind that maybe all of us bloggers have been as responsible for blog growth as any other single factor – yet we just may not be aware of it. Think about it. We see a cool photo or funny story on a blog, and what’s the first thing we do? Hit send, or post about it.
Nobody required it, nor was it part of the blog initiation ceremony I went through. (And they still can’t find our neighbor’s cat either.) Still, we blog the message forward without thinking twice, and all under the guise of ‘Hey, look at this!’ Meanwhile, you hope your boss doesn’t walk by at the precise moment you’re viewing one of your cousin’s daily LOL! ‘Priceless’ pictures.
Intuitively, we spur blog growth without thinking about it just by the simple of act sending and linking things. That can’t be a bad thing. What other industry has grown this quickly because of the organic efforts like this by its members? (In the spirit of things, I saw this post after thinking about the concept, go figure. )

What is particularly pleasing about this phenomemon is the fact that most bloggers are so well-mannered. A few are naughty and steal posts and pictures, but most of us always acknowledge our sources.
I think it's remarkable. Spread the love, people.
And if spreading the love won’t work, then by all means, steal.
;-p
