Sure, I have no problem sharing my opinions. I wish the blog reflected the team more, and not just b/c it get tedious to blog so much.

It's looking like a clean sweep against. I'm glad we didn't invest any effort.

I prefer hearing what Jake (and Rich and Paul) have to say. Not so interested in reading a bunch of other stuff. I come here for your opinions.

That's fair. When you get a weekly links post combined with real content during the week, that works for me. When you get only links posts and very little original content, that bores me.

It's looking like a pretty easy no right now, which is fine. Just asking.

"I’m asking because I think many/some people don’t like blogs that push out periodic link posts in the absence of real content"

Once in a great while link posts with comments are fine, but I prefer posts with meat on them. The word "periodic" suggest to me regularly which is case of frequency I'd frown upon from any blog I'm subscribed and reading. Hey, you asked :)

That sounds like a nice way of saying "no" :) which is fine. I'm not biased either way, which is why I threw it up for a vote.

And it sounds like more work for me.

I'd just ask that you make it optional by providing a feed for full posts, a feed for Reader shared items, and a combined feed. Advertise whichever one you want, but make an option available :-)
