Ok folks, I don’t know if this will get funny or not. I’ll just give it a shot.

When I was at the barcamp hannover we had a lovely session entitled blogging without readers that turned out to be a support-group for socially retarded nice geeks with exactly this problem. For me it was a 45min laugh (not that I have a popular blog, but you know … those guys … hilarious, I’m telling you boy … ), so I was just trying to keep myself together and note down citations from the discussion.

I will try to translate them and post one or another at one day or the other.

Here are the first three quotes (they are cited in the exact chronological order):

“I was already blogging, when blogging didn’t even exist!”

“I’m blogging, because people could theoretically view my writings.”

“As I have no readers, I’m free to write whatever I want… just great!”
