You do with your comments!
When I give talks about the value of blogs, I always brag about how active the rain city guide community is, but I hadn’t thought to try quantify it until I saw John Cook’s post this morning.
Over the past 3+ years, we’ve had 30,802 comments from 1,744 posts!
This is an average of over 17 comments for every post! That’s pretty darn impressive!
It’s kind of fun to look back at the posts that have generated the most conversations, so I thought I’d list all the posts that have generated over 100 comments:
