Question For My Blog Readers
You’re here. Whether you comment or you do not, you are here.
The other day I came across a poll on the UAE Community Blog that asked how surfers found blogs to read. The most popular option was “UAE Community Blogroll”, which would make sense since the damn poll was located on that page. Stunning to think that people at the UAE Community blog should find other blogs from there, isn’t it?
Now, I take special interest in this because I asked to have my posting rights revoked and to be completely removed from that particular blogroll, as I have personal issues with the administration of UAE Community. I do not believe that that blog represents the UAE society in the least. In fact, I pretty much have it summed up to being a bitch fest for expats to point out how nasty the UAE is and to promote a few select bloggers with the same mind-set.
Since I asked to be removed, I have not noticed any significant decrease in my page views and while I was listed there my stats showed that very few of you came here from there.
Makes me wonder, how did you find me? Even those of you who don’t usually comment, I’d appreciate it much if you took the time to let me know, even if it’s done anonymously. Curiosity kills the cat, you know. And thanks in advance.
This is going to be one of those posts that gets exactly 1 comment, isn’t it?

Got it from Sam's blogs list.
You two are my favorites.
Take care of yourself and your litle Ali.
Good luck.
Got it from MD's blog =D I really love reading your blog!
Don't remember exactly, must've been through another blog, either links or comments section. I liked what I read so I stayed (anonymously till I get my blog up'n'running)
Well thank you all very much...
Four more of you answered than I thought would. ;)
I appreciate the knowledge and have to thank EVERYONE who linked me to their blogroll, cause it seems that most of you are finding me from other people's blogs.
yup seems thats the case, people follow through other blogs or even through comments you place on other blogs. I saw your blog a long time back when the whole baluchi episode started. Probably from one of your comments.
Off Balushi's awe-inspiring blog
I found you via Keefieboy's 'Adventures in Dubai' but I'm pretty sure I found him via UAE Community Blog.
Found your blog thru the UAE community. ;)
not sure...quite a long time.
Dani...
I remember when you found me... LOL! It was from the swear-ful post I accidently posted there instead of here, and then deleted right quick...
Remember now? It wasn't the blog roll, it was the mistaken post I made there.
;)
I think I found you through the dreaded SD's blog...maybe thats the only good thing I got out of it...
your highness...i was with u since DAY 1...i was locked up by u in the dungeon!But seriously.....who else? via Baluchi!
Axonsax it was, followed a link, bumped into your page, and ze rest is history :-) Very matter of fact, eloquent, humorous and so full of charm you are. My Lady, don't stop being all these things you are & so much much more; ever :-) Cheers :-)
I found you some time ago - and have been trying to get rid of you ever since, but what happens? You stalk me, follow me to Coffee Houses, text me, call me, proclaim undying love for me (Can't blame you on that one)....
Love ya kidda!
I discovered you when I was reading a post in Archers Adda. You commented on that post, I clicked on your profile, and got to your blog. The first post I read from your blog is "Today’s Language of a Spineless Little Bitch..."
Since then, I was hooked to your blog.
Followed your comments on Sd's blog. Around time you started it.
I latched on after a comment you left when I'd just started blogging & have been hooked ever since............looking forward to the next entry!
I just found ur blog today. Im three days old in the land of blog and i was given the advice to look through comments. Im at work so I dont know what I was doing suddenyl I had ur profile page. Sparked interest. Hope my blog sparks yours.
Got you on Balushi's blog.
Now how did I get to Balushi's blog is still a mystery...
Well, thank you all for the compliments and the information.
3anooda, I love your nick first of all. Second, I have limited connection just now. I should be back on line full force soon enough and I’ll be sure to take a look at your blog. Welcome to blogging.
And balushi, you forgot to mention that you couldn’t afford me there, thus the reason you started obsessing and loving me online instead of in the flesh.
I went from Ugly Camel, to Balushi to you!
I'm not into women usually, but you I like....
look at that anon...
you and I have something in common... not being into women, and all...
I dont remember how I came across your blog. Geez, its been THAT long.
i think u made a comment in my blog which i did not update fro long now, since that time i do visit ur blog several times a day
and... I love you for it ad...
But you've been quiet recently, huh?
Life getting in your way?
I made it a point to search for blogs concerning the UAE on my own... and you can tell which ones are bullshit... you just have to keep on searching...
I'm here because I love you :D
Ok well I found you when you fought with B. And I thought 'Who is this *beep* who drove B out.' LOL you see, no matter what people say...he has a different presence in this copy-paste worshipper's world. So I've always wanted him around ;)
And I'm so glad I found you!
Awwwe, I love you MD.
And it's been a long ass while since I spoke to you. Actually, I have something that belongs to you!!
I dunno... either you came to my blog or I saw you at sam's blog..
