New Year Blogroll Notes
A Hackwhackers housekeeping note: We've added several kindred blogs to our blogroll in recent days/ weeks/ months. We enjoy following them, and we hope you will, too, if you're not already:
Thanks so much to you both for your support. The considerable bump in traffic you've given me has rekindled my desire to flame on. It's really hard to maintain the driver to pump out material when no one seems to be reading it.
bluzdude - I know what you mean about having the motivation to continue when you think it's all disappearing out into the ether. But I've found there's a band of bloggers out there (like Infidel) who want to be supportive because the more voices, the richer we are. Even when it seems no one is reading, someone is.
I can imagine that most bloggers want a high volume of followers or they wouldn't be doing what they do. I read some blogs with huge numbers and while they do provide a lot of feedback and conversation, some of the smaller blogs I read are my favorites. I enjoy seeing familiar people and responding to their posts without my comments being buried in an avalanche of other replies.
There must be a happy medium, where posts inspire a lot of participation without having a massive list of responses that you have to struggle though.

All good additions. Darwinfish 2 is a favorite recent discovery to me as well.
Thanks for your prolific hackwhacking, and let's hope that 2019 will bring progress toward Trumplessness and a better future.
Infidel -- thanks, brother.

Happy New Year, guys.
