I definitely think there could be one or two successful ones, but I'm not sure why it would be necessary or desirable when pictures really do add so much.<br /><br />And as far as what you're missing being disconnected for a short period of time? This is what I learned: I sometimes feel addicted to the internet and phone and being "online" so I have in the past made myself not touch the phone or computer at home for an hour (sounds lame that I have that much of a love for the computer or phone). And when I go back, I expect to have messages or comments or something, and there's nothing, or one email. And I always get so disappointed, but it also makes me realized that it's no essential to be connected all the time. <br /><br />The End.meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12465250692644738996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174255284043642386.post-73647847635982871802012-07-11T12:26:03.586-07:002012-07-11T12:26:03.586-07:00i think as long as the content is solid... it can ...i think as long as the content is solid... it can be successful. sometimes pictures can just be overwhelming/over stimulating.Oliviaaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12896313182013518803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174255284043642386.post-3977839257267943792012-07-11T11:11:14.549-07:002012-07-11T11:11:14.549-07:00I think this might be the most powerful thing I...I think this might be the most powerful thing I've ever read on a blog. <br /><br />When someone posts a comment that only references the first line of text, I start to worry that it's only the photos that people care about. But honesty is even better than a beautiful picture. <br /><br />I'm leaving my computer at home and putting my phone on airplane mode during our vacation in a few weeks–I know it'll be hard to disconnect, but I think that's the best reason to do it.A Crimson Kisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00474778213617208638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174255284043642386.post-32417332830597837762012-07-11T10:19:14.618-07:002012-07-11T10:19:14.618-07:00A blog could totally be successful with only words...A blog could totally be successful with only words as long as the words are meaningful.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04326688859995533854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174255284043642386.post-34226015764856143192012-07-11T05:54:36.053-07:002012-07-11T05:54:36.053-07:00I read all text posts....but at about 1/2 a page I...I read all text posts....but at about 1/2 a page I end up scanning.

But I do like the downtime without technology. <br /><br />As for this generation, I think it truly depends on the person and also at what time one lands on which post. Sometimes (like this morning) I got an early start and its pouring outside to go for a run so I have the luxury of time to read but on other days I might just be browsing through and only open posts which grab my attention. But I do think there are still people who want to read genuine and compelling words. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.tanvii.com/" rel="nofollow">∞ © tanvii.com ∞</a>Tanvihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05491567577469019680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174255284043642386.post-58682837529570413892012-07-11T05:23:48.341-07:002012-07-11T05:23:48.341-07:00Oh wow.

I would ALWAYS read a blog without pictures. But that isn't totally true. It all depends on the amount of time I have. I want to read what people have to say--but do I have the time? Not always. However, I do think a blog can be very successful without pictures....all about creative writing.......and you my friend have a gift for sarcasm and funny stories. :)17 Perthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09972029146968230231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174255284043642386.post-87685305666598639312012-07-11T03:57:30.200-07:002012-07-11T03:57:30.200-07:00Thought provoking and I think yes.
