My Partner and The Blog

The idea of blogging is concept which is totally foreign to my partner. He disavows its significance in cyberspace and feels it is a harmless outlet for me to vent my thoughts or frustrations with the practice of law. He absolutely refuses to entertain the idea that people actually read it and more importantly that we get business from its existence. Whenever we sign up a client who was referred to us from the Internet his smile tightens as he reminds me of the mega money we spend per month on our Internet sight to attract these clients. The blog in his mind does not attract clients and he dismisses the whole idea of regular blogging to increase exposure on search engines. Admittedly I don't understand how it works completely myself, but I do believe it works and I do believe people are reading my blog, although I am dismayed that I never get comments. Other blogs I read have a tremendous amount of comments and sometimes I feel bad that no one wants to say anything. At the bottom of my blog I have a site tracker which tells me how many people read my blog daily and where they are from. This week I believe Minnie Mouse read my blog. Yup, I really do. Someone in Orlando Florida using the Disney Internet service (Of course they have their own service) found my blog interesting enough to read it for a while. Minnie Mouse was my first guess; but maybe its Goofy. Goofy way very flirty in Disney, perhaps he and Mrs. Goofy have issues. I also think George Bush might be reading my blog. Someone in Washington DC, specifically over in the labor department checked out my blog last week. I think maybe George used one of the computers over there to surf the web and landed on my site.
A potential client came in last week telling my staff she looked forward to reading my blog each week and enjoyed it tremendously. My partner dismisses this as an anomaly. Now if someone famous actually admitted to reading my blog, his smirking would stop, that's for sure. Ok, you closet blog readers here is my challenge: If you are reading my blog and enjoy it (please no negative comments, I am very sensitive)please leave me a comment and let me know. I don't care where you are from or whether or not you are a potential client, let me know you are out there and where you are from. George, Minnie, don't be shy....my partner needs to understand that this is not just a lark; this is technology!
