Okay, confession time. I’ve been guilty of going through my Reader and clicking “Like” for every post but not actually reading the posts. There, I admitted it. Liking a post without clicking it on and reading it doesn’t get the writer of the post, who worked long and hard on it, any additional views, and you don’t get anything out of their post because you didn’t read it. If you click “Like” without reading the post, you’re essentially lying to the author of the post. It’s like looking at the cover of a book without opening it and saying you’ve read it.
Thanks to Danny Ray’s article, I’ll be more mindful of this in the future!

I don’t feel bad; I think of it as an acknowledgement that I’ve said something.

Sometimes I just don’t have time to read a whole post, but Liking lets the blogger know at least I’m acknowledging they wrote it. I’m trying to spend more time actually reading though, when I can.
