M4:D75 (D375) Retired from the Shreddersphere?

What's on my mind today?

I was recently asked if I had retired from the Shredderspehere.  I gave my response rather quickly, but as the day went on, I had to really think about that question.  Have I retired from the Shreddersphere?  Being the outspoken individual that I am, I thought I'd approach the issue today.

I have some honest concerns about helping out people on the Shreddersphere right now.  Quite honestly, the number of people in the Shreddersphere has grown tremendously.  I used to run through the entire list in about 30 minutes each day, but to do the same thing now would require about 90 minutes of my time every single day.  I just do not have that time to spare.  At the same time, I honestly believe it is important for us to support each other.  The question becomes how can we do it?

I have been very disappointed that there are just a few people who consistently comment posts on various blogs.  With a group the size of the Shreddersphere we should see blogs full of comments, but that just isn't happening.  Do people just not understand the power of the support they are giving?  Is it not understood that for there to be accountability there must be people consistently holding us accountable?  How can we be held accountable if nobody is commenting our blogs?  What sort of positive pressure is there if we are not commenting each other's blogs?

What can be done to fix this situation?  That's the question I have today.  You will see it under the question of the day.  I apologize in advance if this post offends anyone.  It is not my intention to offend, but to fix a problem that I see getting bigger and bigger.  We (the Shreddersphere) need a better system for holding each other accountable.  I have my own ideas, but for now they will remain my own.  I will offer them up to the Shredder Council members privately, but for now they must remain private until we agree on a way to fix this problem that I see.  Do you not see this problem as well?  Am I missing something here?  Am I completely wrong on my take?  Where is the support?  Where are the comments?  Let's get things back in line!
