Where have all the comments gone?

So as I’ve been blogging over the past few years, I’ve noticed a trend that I don’t know what to think about.  There has been a significant drop in the number of comments (at least that I recieve). 

I don’t know why this is.  Does my writting style lead to people being passive readers?  Are my posts not commentable?  Are people to lazy to write something back?  Is the comment form to hard to fill out? 

I really don’t have a clue.  My stats tell me that I have a steady flow of people reading my blog.  But the number of people who comment are nearly non-existant.  Like my dog asking for a treat, I have to beg to get comments (hence this post).   The top commenter on my blog has commented on three posts (you go Dave).

I really don’t know why no one wants to comment on my site.  The same is true for Shannon and her blog.  She’s only had three people leave her a comment since she sarted (and technically mine doesn’t count).

So whats the deal people.  Are you afraid?  Is my writting so intimidating and perfect that you can’t leave a comment.  I’m just going to assume this until you prove me otherwise. 

So until next time, have a good day you pansy non-commentators.
