Some people just don’t get blogging

Check this out. I’m gonna give it to you the way it happened so it’s chronological:
I write a blog post on “Offshore BPO outsourcing in South Africa set to grow“. I’m interested in that, and I read a lot about it, so I’m forming my own opinions about it.
Bhavna comments on my post yesterday – to quote: “This blog is quite informative for my business, even I have blog on outsourcing so can we exchange the links to share our knowledge resources.”
I log into WordPress admin for this site today, see the comment above, and naturally check it out.
I take a look at his site, like the content, so subscribe to his feed via Newsgator, so now I get all his content delivered right into Outlook whenever he posts new content.
This means that I can forward via email to anyone I feel will be interested, and read his content at my leisure. What a bargain.
End of the day, through my blog I’ve connected with someone on the other side of the world, just by writing about stuff that I care about.
And here’s the penny dropper – by adding his feed to my oneafrikan.com blogroll, I’m able to share all of his goodness with other people who are interested.
Get it?
Edit:
Even though Bhavna is interested in outsourcing / offshoring in India, and I’m interested in the same from a South African perspective, we have just started a conversation / dialogue / chat (call it what you will) – and I’m sure over time we’ll continue to talk about our common interest.
