Sat, 11 Jul 2009 16:08:03 +0000 http://www.webdistortion.com/?p=2838#comment-4780 @ Sidra Condron, Your comment strikes a chord with me. I find myself often jumping into an explanation part of a comment. But I see that as a problem for me. The formal and expected layout, taking time for relating personally and identifying why you are writing and what variety of issue you intend to address can enhance the message. I can personalize the comment and assure the reader how my comment relates to the people and ideas on the page. Bread and butter notes, and thank you notes, can express respect and even affection between people. I might be pleased that the blender I gave fits under your cupboard, but I might be more content if your note started with something really valuable - the assurance that you appreciate the gift. Not all comments need to be personal or laid out formally. But some can. And I need to make more effort to make structure and personal connection part of my comments. Thank you. @ Sidra Condron,

Not all comments need to be personal or laid out formally. But some can. And I need to make more effort to make structure and personal connection part of my comments.

Thank you.

I never start with the phrase "thank you," instead jumping into the comments about the wonderful gift and how much I appreciate the giver. I felt that by dropping that predictable intro--much like avoiding "great post!"--it lets the reader know that I gave careful thought to showing my appreciation for their generous efforts. So, Paul, I enjoyed the relevant quotes that tied to your thoughts. This was an excellent introduction to new concepts like deep-linking and a great reinforcement of important tips that could always use a refresher. Thank you for sharing them with a creative twist.

Once while Mahatma Gandhi’s train was pulling slowly out of the station, a European reporter ran up to his compartment window. “Do you have a message I can take back to my people?” he asked. It was Gandhi’s day of silence [Mondays], a vital respite from demanding speaking schedule, so he didn’t reply. Instead, he scrawled a few words on a piece of paper and passed it to the reporter: “My life is my message”. May all become courageous, compassionate, pragmatic and wise. Have a ONE-derful week hermano Paul! :-) If you want to be a rebel, be kind. Human-kind, be both. Pancho PS: We are tweeting a revolution! ;-) Dear beloved satyagrahi and brother Paul! :-)
