This hasn't been a great month for me and since I figured people would be sick of my gloom, I am now posting random pictures and hoping I make it until the end. Last year I did the Holidalies challenge right after this one. This year I don't think I will go for that. I am still going to finish this month if it's the last thing I do.

Since I've been posting daily since December 2005, NaBloPoMo isn't a huge challenge for me. I am a little bummed that the project has gotten so large that I don't see many visitors in November...that was the fun for me when I did the challenge the first and second years, that every day I would see new folks and explore new blogs.

I agree, last year there were more conversations, more visitors and more action.

I don't have trouble getting around, you'll get the hang of it. I was just thinking last year I remember seeing more discussion and more chatter and more blog visitors.

I agree. There's practically no conversation this year. And with the randomizer broken, I'm not even really visiting anyone like I did in the past. It's not as fun as it was the last couple years. :(

I definitely do not think that this is a user friendly site. I've found it hard to navigate/understand from the beginning, and while it seems stupid to be complaining about Ning on Ning...I really wish that NaBloPoMo hadn't moved here. I also wish it was still November, rather than year-round, because the year round thing kind of spoils the fun.

Hanging in there! It was not exactly my most brilliant idea to think that I would a) want to and b) have time to blog anything intelligent or interesting from vacation, though.

I'm not having trouble keeping up since I try to post daily and multiple times a day if I can on my regular blog www.ciaochessa.com
One thing I noticed here though is that I'm not really getting that much traffic:( And, I noticed that the main page hasn't ben updated since last week at the end of Week 1. hmmm...even so, I'm having fun with this new place to post and meeting a few new people.

Ugh, I'm having a hard time. I blog on the books I read, and I'm currently bogged down in one. I agree with everyone else who says that this site seems less active this year. Last year was my first time participating and it felt great to make it to the end. I got depressed about halfway through last year and wrote a post on how I was a boring person with nothing to say. It got tons of positive comments from random people who assured me they liked my blog, that I could keep going, that I wasn't any more boring than they were, etc. People tagged me for memes, helped me with writing topics, added me to their links section, all sorts of cool stuff. None of that this year. If I make it to the end, will anyone care? Or even know?

I wish I could say "of course they'll know," but really all I can muster up is "it doesn't matter because you'll know and it's quite the accomplishment, so yay!"
I met so many great bloggers last year and this year, not really much of anything. I'm not putting out as much effort to go looking through the lists of people either, but I didn't have to do that last year.....it didn't feel like "effort" at all because I was just having fun, meeting new people, and stumbling across them here in the forums or through other bloggers, or the lovely randomizer that I miss so dearly. I got lots of comments, I left lots of comments, it was fun. I think I'm just in a funk this year maybe.
Oh, and does anybody remember the groups of "supporters" out there who had their own challenges of commenting on 10 people a day or discovering a new blog each day? It was kinda cool.

I remember last year as being so fun. I was thinking it was me just like you said "being in a funk". I even joined a group on here that had commenting challenges and I thought it would be fun... but no one is active in the forum over there. Then I signed up for a blog switching thing in the regular forums on here and no one is active in there either. Maybe we should just make it up to ourselves to start picking up the pace.
