Hey Trisha, so far I am really enjoying this 'project'. It's not only a great way of being introduced to new blogs, but it also teaches me a lot about design etc and gives me ideas of how to improve my own blog.
I hope many people are going to leave comments about the blogs posted, because the more comments, the more interesting it gets.
It might seem a bit scary to leave comments about other peoples blogs, but people should keep in mind that people whose blogs are posted are asking for comments. Also people might feel that when some people have already commented, there is nothing more to say, but the fact that more people are making the same comment, shows the owner of the blog that it really does need some attention.
