			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Louis Gray has posted an interesting <a title="http://www.louisgray.com/live/2007/03/trouble-with-rss-im-not-involved.html" href="http://www.louisgray.com/live/2007/03/trouble-with-rss-im-not-involved.html">discussion</a> on how <strong>RSS readers defeat the involvement of readers in active discussions on blog entries</strong>.  Instead, we just read and click ‘next’.  I think he makes a good point.</p>
<p>As <a title="http://scobleizer.com" href="http://scobleizer.com">Scoble</a> and <a title="http://redcouch.typepad.com/" href="http://redcouch.typepad.com/">Israel</a> wrote in ‘Naked Conversations’, blogs are about community and public discussions.  <strong>I think a blog is only as good as the amount of perspectives it provides</strong>.  These perspectives are provided by the readers via comments and trackbacks.</p>

<p><em>Communities rock, Single perspective entries don’t.</em></p>
<p>With that said, I’m really thankful for all of you who comment on my entries and share your two cents.  <strong>Without you all, this blog wouldn’t be as interesting.</strong></p>
<p>Keep the comments coming!  I love getting e-mails with new comment notifications (except when it’s spam :p).</p>
