Ok, this is my take, you work your ass off trying to provide exciting shit for people to read, countless hours posting and troubleshooting especially when you are new at the blogging gig. I'm not a techie person or a web designer, award winning scholar, or critic of any kind -in the professional sphere, PHD, MD, XYZ or ABC -you get my point. You join this "Fame it award" thingy and nobody leaves you comments at your blog?
My answer, I dunno, beats me.
WTF? I'm getting an eerie feeling this is set up for the established blogger that run in certain circles, I have read so much my eyes are almost freakin spinnin! People promoting themselves OK but are they really taking the time too actually look at someone else's blog? Are they doing this all in order to gain votes for themselves? I read an interesting blog very insightful about this very thing I'm writing about.
There have been two friendly people Laketrees & Deborah Peterson- a personal Thank you.
Err stop the bus, back up! I'm truly hoping that the friends that I do have out there give me a nod and vote crazy fans of music, people who see that there are those of us, little "new guys" with passion, guts & creativity.
So let me pull out some Paul McCartney and enjoy some beautiful music and keep posting & reading away, rant over. lmao at me!
Little added snippet a shout out to Antman for your support, Thankyou!
I'm taillights

Thanks for your kind words :-)
Divya's blog that Antman was speaking about is:

She provides some very good advice.
As for social communities, you'll find that in part for most of them it's rather impersonal. That's been my take anyways. There is one that I've found some very genuine people / bloggers at, which is BumpZee, for their Do Follow community. I refer people to the site whenever I can because I believe in what I say.
The Do Follow community is for bloggers that have opted to use a Do Follow plugin that permits links back to people that leave comments on your site...sharing linky love. You can read all about it on the site. Andy Beard, the owner of the site has a lot of info on the subject.
If you go to my site and look for my post in the Blogs and Websites category, I've written a post for 'I Will Follow!'. There's a number of links in the post that will take you where you need to go to find out about it.
