The CEO of PayPerPost, Ted Murphy, is attempting to create a Guinness Book of World Record of the longest blog comment chain. His post, published on the official blog of PayPerPost explains his ambitious attempt, which I am sure, with the help of all posties, is achievable an on target too.

I am not sure if non PayPerPost members would be able to contribute to the comment chain. It would definitely help in Ted’s target of 2000 unique human generated comment chain of at least 25 words each within one week of the published date of the post.

Ted says that the longest comment he has ever seen on a blog post is 350. Well, if I remember correctly, Kathy Sierra’s recent post revealing horrible cyber threats against her pretty much went over a thousand comments of sympathy and support.

In this case, it is a fun blog post that generates fun comments and I always see PayPerPost as an international community where members are always game for something crazy and supportive of the company and the people behind it.

If you are not yet a member of PayPerPost, come and join me by clicking on the Blue & Green Button on my sidebar and you can help to create a Guinness Book of World Record by contributing to the longest comment chain on a single blog post with at least 25 words, within one week of the published date. We’re waiting for you!

I am sure most of us have already heard of the Kathy Sierra saga. If you have not, then let me tell you that Kathy is a programming instructor, game developer, author and a very popular blogger. Now, the blogging world is very tough and it is mostly dominated by men so I think we should be very proud that Kathy has made it.

I previously wrote a post on Gangsterism In Malaysian Blogosphere. I was actually aghast at the state of the blogosphere here. However, Kathy Sierra’s detractors have taken things more than a level above by intimidating her and issuing death threats publicly.

And on a smaller scale, if you are also a Fuel My Blog community member, you would know that the creators are dealing with the Snuff option issue. Should it stay or go? When voting on blogs was first opened, we were happily voting on blogs that we like. It was pretty simple, wasn’t it? But then there are sick-minded people who just simply Snuff other blogs without a solid reason. Perhaps this makes their own blog rating look better?

I have thought that the blogsophere pie is large enough for everyone, man or woman, big time blogger or small timer like myself.

It is a shame that some people, due to whatever ego-feeding reason, feel better when they push someone down and use his/her back as a stepping stone to climb higher.

Why can’t we celebrate the success of another blogger and be happy for him/her?
