.....just how quiet and uninhabited the blogosphere becomes on the weekend? It has long been thus, a pin can be heard dropping in almost any blog Saturday to Sunday and the onset of the festive season has only proved to make the situation more pronounced.
I have a theory or two on this. The first is that many of you actually have life at the weekend and go out of the house to do stuff that doesn't involve a hard drive and a mouse. I myself am not in much evidence, work forces me from this spot on the two days of the week when everyone else seems to be out playing, I arrive home from work expecting everything to be as normal and invariably find just a few of us in residence.
My second theory should be of concern to the average CEO......just how many bloggers blog only from work, as a Monday to Friday distraction from the mundanities of the office ?.......oh the chance would be a fine thing. We hear much about the amount of corporate time spent in the workplace emailing friends with jokes etc.....email my foot.....there is a whole world of corporate bloggers out there somewhere who go into hiding as soon as the weekend arrives.......... As if! :o)

Ahh yes Gem and then there are us el desparados who have no life! OOpps..i do have a life, just el desparado..LOL...omg before i start getting nutjobs sending me messages....JOKE OK.
However, there are some of us whose work ties us to the puter...moi for one, so it gives me the flexability to blogsurf :o)
Rofl Michelle, of course....I forgot to mention those of us with no life! hehe. The perfect job methinks....one that allows connection to the internet, I have to go find a new employer right now!! :o)
It is very quiet. The computer is my sanity away from the kids, EVERY CHANCE I GET. I feel like a farm animal, I go and do family stuff, and then a little grazing in the blogger world. family...grazing....family....grazing....family....grazing....family....grazing...
Back to family....ta ta for now! TW.
how right you are! the first couple months i was here i really wondered what happened to everyone on weekends... and fear that i USED to be one of those annoying near-spammers if i saw anyone pop up on instant messengers... I'd pounce, "hi! Hi! talk to me!"
then i came to your same conclusion... everyone besides us has a life... lol. and by the way, I just noticed that my heavy handed style has begun to wear the letters off the keys on my keyboard.. which is what... 8 months old? LOLOLOL! love ya sis!
I'll be honest here - I might blog more on the weekends, but my darling hubby who uses a computer purely for work, will come look over my shoulder and give me weird looks and such and I can't "get in the mood" to write. So I tend to store up until Monday. But I too notice there is little commenting or new blogging anywhere on the weekend. I don't even normally check anyone else's blogs anymore until Monday.
Yes, and it's not as if everyone was flocking round the shops doing last minute Xmas shopping - not this week-end anyway! :)
TW: I just do the grazing! heh
Magz: Lmao, we have a life, it's just it's here! :o)
Lisa: It ain't just you that's so quiet on the weekend! :o)
Jack: I dunno, let me know if you find out! heh.
Scareltt: Tell yer man to mind his own business! lol
Jenny: same here, very quiet this weekend at work, we in retail maybe see the lack of confidence before the rest! :o/
Manina: Rofl @ 'inspired'! Tee hee.
