Hi, I use your livejournal syndication to follow your blog; it's sometimes an hour or two behind in picking up your latest post but I get to read them all in the end! I have your syndicated account as a "friend" so I can read your words, those of my friends, and those of other syndicated things (examples are Dictionary.com word of the day, or BBC news headlines) at the same time once or twice a day. It just makes life easier. Frankly, I'd forget to read your blog if it wasn't done like that (I forget many sites, or sometimes even email accounts I should be reading, if I get caught up in work). You can view comments on your syndicated account, if you wish, by going to http://syndicated.livejournal.com/random_reality/ and clicking on each article, but in my experience most people know there is no point in commenting in a syndicated account, as it won't be read by the blog's author. Hence I've come here to leave this - and had to create an account to do so. Bother! Cheers, Flash
