The Obligation of the Internet

A blog is like a houseplant.  Fail to feed it and it dies. Wait, that makes it sound more like a pet.

A blog is like a dog.  Fail to feed it and it dies.  That’s terrible.  Who say things like that?

A blog is like a baby.  Feed it and it will grow up.

There, that’s a little more like it.  Less horrific in any case.  Unlike a baby or perhaps a puppy, if you fail to feed a blog, it won’t die.  It will sit waiting for you, like that treadmill you bought last year because you were definitely going to use it everyday I mean what like thirty minutes a day how hard is that?  Collecting dust.

Feed it.  Feed it and watch it grow.
