I comment when I like a post on a site or I have something to contribute to the
conversation. Usually it is caused by the passion communicated in
the post I looked at. And on this article "Still eating canned foods????".
I was moved enough to post a thought :-) I
actually do have a few questions for you if you usually do not mind.
Is it just me or does it look like a few of these comments look like written by
brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing on other social sites, I would like to
keep up with everything fresh you have to post. Could you list every one of all your shared sites like your Facebook page,
twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
