"Commentpalooza" is over.  I didn’t make my 1,000 sincere comments goal.  Not even half way.  If I would’ve been aiming for 422, I would’ve made the goal, but hindsight is umm bad or something. I even have physical evidence, documented in scientific gold glitter pen.  Here are the stats.

1.  I left 422 comments.

2.  I received 48 comments in return.  All of these were very complimentary.

3.  I met about 6 new people who I have decided must now be my friends.

4.  I don’ t know about the number of links resulted in this, as of now I can detect only 5-10.

5.  I added 22 new blogs to my feedreader.  That is saying a lot, because usually only 1 in 100 blogs impresses me enough to want to read everyday.

6.  I actually lost return commenters on some of my other blogs because I was always using the sarakastic.blogspot address in my comments.

7.  I started to receive about 3 times as much junk e-mail, I really hope this is a coincidence.

8.  The comments averaged 54 words a piece, for an estimated total of 22,788 words.  The average book is 75,000 words.  I wrote almost 1/3 of a novel.

Time will tell what the search engines think of "commentpalooza".  Hopefully, I made people smile & lent some encouragement.  As they say in the credit car commercials, priceless.
