It helps track our goals. It also has the concept of "going forward" as you suggested. I had added a goal for my self "Make a blog" but never worked on it. But after reading this I think I should change it to "Make a good blog in 1 week". Cheers Kumar I found a facebook App, go4it. It helps track our goals.

The community building I mean and commenting on others blogs and to actually set a goal for it!! You know you are always welcome at Buzzing with Ange :) Google reader may be another that you could consider, or even Bloglines. Just thinking out loud. This is great Glenda!

At some point I may switch to a different app, if I encounter one that meets my needs better. I found it by asking Google. :) -TimK I use Vienna on my MacBook, but I don’t know that it’s the best.

I didn't even know these services existed - still much to learn! Reading Mike Sansone's post, it sounds like Co.Mments is another possibility. If you've used it, your opinion is most welcomed. And Joanna, excellent point about by making commenting a "must do", some of the enjoyment may be lost. Definitely something to keep in mind as I (and others) proceed with commenting goals. Tim, great idea! That may be simpler than a spreadsheet. I guess that means I should bite the bullet and set up a real RSS reader; I've been using Yahoo! Any recommendations?

When I comment on someone else's blog, I subscribe to the RSS comments feed for that post. I have a special folder in my feed reader for comments, and I put the comments subscription in that folder. That makes it easy to keep up on follow-up comments. -TimK Hi, Glenda. When I comment on someone else’s blog, I subscribe to the RSS comments feed for that post.
