<p>What about the posts about the Mummified family, photos or posts about nothing in particular (I’m sure there are ALOT of those! LOL)?</p>
<p>With 100+ subscribers (THANK YOU!!) I want to keep providing posts that you will enjoy reading and not rambling posts about how I can’t get through the <a href="http://www.northmyrtlebeachgolf.com/">Myrtle beach golf</a> leg of the stupid game I’m playing. I don’t know why I’m playing it because I hate golf with a passion…..</p>
<p>so please do tell me what you like and what you don’t like…..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently culled a whole heap of blogs out of my Google Reader – for a number of reasons. I had some there that haven’t been updated for months. Some had become too spammy for my liking, with almost every post being a paid post and others were culled only because my interests have changed and I was no longer interested in the topic they were blogging about.</p>
<p>So it got me thinking about the blogs I stay subscribed to and what makes me subscribe to a blog.</p>
<p>I think the first thing that attracts me to a blog is the template. If it’s well set out and catches my eye, I’ll check out a couple posts. If there’s something there that I can relate to, I usually subscribe so I can stay updated.</p>
<p>I tend to lean toward blogs that are not written in article style. When I write my blog posts, I write them in the same way as if I was having a conversation with a friend over coffee – hence the bad grammar sometimes LOL I prefer that style of blogging and I find that the majority of blogs in my reader are written in the same style.</p>
<p>So what prompts you to subscribe to a blog?</p>
