		<description>What an awesome blog!  I like this post - I have so little time to blog as it is that I&#039;ve been avoiding a lot of the social site scene, but I know it could be useful if I know what I&#039;m doing and SPEND TIME on it.</description>

		<description>I think you should only get involved with social media sites if you really want to become part of a community.  It is not really about what you are going to get out of it in the end.

If you truly participate in the social sites, I think you&#039;ll find the benefits of more traffic, subscribers and sales does come.  But it should not be your main reason for participating.</description>

		<description>GREAT post!  I am new to Twitter (as well as this whole blogosphere) and I haven&#039;t quite figured it out.  I thought Twitter would be a great place to socialize with fellow bloggers, share ideas and yeah, discuss dinner if the subject comes up.  There is so much to do...so little time!  I am learning by the bucketful and readjusting my priorities daily.  This is great stuff!</description>

		<description>I think you should join a social network only for those topics you are truly interested in (I&#039;m active on Flickr and Last.fm because I like photography and music), and not specifically as a means to promote your site. When you become an active part of any community, the hits will come.</description>
