02 - Sometimes looking at a blogger's photo on their sidebar makes me uncomfortable. I find photos of real faces distracting while I'm browsing a blog. It's nice to see who is behind the blog but I wish they would place that photo in their about page or use an image that is an illustration or a symbol or an object. There are some very awkward photos on people's blog that I cannot unseen. (I'm not referring to Blogger's profile icons which are smaller.)
03 - I can be a bit annoying by pointing out the mistakes in someone's blog but usually just spelling mistakes and link mistakes (like when a link didn't work) because those are the kind of mistakes I like people to point out on my blog. Sadly, no one had pointed out I had misspelled 'of course' instead of letting me get away using 'of cause' for many years on my blogs. Maybe I should have checked the dictionary instead of relying on my word app's spellcheck which do not correct such things because it sees it as two separate words.
What honest confessions do you have about blogging?
Sorry about my nausea-inducing picture. As far as pointing out mistakes, please do. I can be quite picky when it comes to spelling and grammar. And I always check whether a link works or not. But, sometimes mistakes slip through the cracks and I refuse to pay for a proofreader...lol.. As far as checking for historical accuracy of my posts? Yeah, most of what I write isn't historically accurate. For instance, the Greeks didn't try to pass off a wooden rabbit to the Trojans.
