Though, reading other blogs for me is also a quick way to come up with some ideas. I do that by either following the blogs in my feed reader, or by reviewing what pops up on certain keywords. I write a lot about "corporate blogs," so finding a number of posts about that term every day gives me lots of fodder for posts. If you are feeling overwhelmed, don't worry too much, maybe concentrate on writing a quality post over several days to break things up. Do a lot of research and thinking on that one post. You might find that post will get noticed because of the amount of resource you conduct into the topic. Actually the discussion between two other readers on a blog is a delicate matter. If I were writing on Robert Scoble's blog, I'd have no problem with chatting with another blog reader. Where you have a blog with few comments. It is probably best to address the blogger rather than the other commenter. Unless the comments and the post is very relevant to what blogger originally talked about. To me it’s a matter of courtesy, therefore I hope the conversation was okay with you.
