lamtieuyen I'm not really sure. But from what I see it could be that the "skin" you used aka the layout of the page has images that are linked from photobucket. If that person gets too many hits, it will exceed. But you might try asking the Blogger team to make sure.

I have a xanga account, but I'm not that active... I use it to keep in touch with my sister and some friends who live far away. My question is, I set my profile to private (so only friends can view), but as I did so I was...

Do You Know All Your Facebook Friends?

vanonas @vanonas (949) • United States 9 Dec 08

I don't know mine all personally. I added a lot of them because we would be going to university together in the fall so it was nice to have some friends of people all over the country going to the same school as me. DO you know...

Emotional Writing

jambi462 @jambi462 (4576) • United States 9 Dec 08

How many of you get really into your writing and can get emotional when the story line gets emotional? I know that I've written a couple of songs that have been so powerful that I've had tears of joy and other emotions flowing...

lamtieuyen I once cried while writing a chapter for one of my stories but I wasn't sure if it was because of the song I was listening to at that time or was it my plot. I always wondered about it. But maybe I will let my readers decide later.

Blog or website?

catmint @catmint (628) • Singapore 11 Dec 08

Do you prefer maintaining a blog or a full website? I used to like websites but trying to built one even with drag n drop tools seems so tedious. I have so many things to incorporate into a site and it becomes too diversed to...

Do you have a blog?

rensal77 @rensal77 (116) • Philippines 12 Dec 08

Do you have a blog? What's it about? I just started blogging and hopefully, I'll get more and more followers. But the more difficult part is writing that would interest a lot of people. My blog is at: www.mytrove.blogspot.com

Would your respond to a discussion when it has a long number of responses ?

torchablazed @torchablazed (3218) • Philippines 13 Dec 08

lamtieuyen I agree that it doesn't matter how many responses as long as you have something to say or want to share on the subject. However, I understand those who wouldn't want to reply. It could be due to that they don't want to be repetitive since previous posters...

Is your handwriting readable?

ronaldinu @ronaldinu (12422) • Malta 14 Oct 08

I have noticed that my handwriting has deteriorated a bit since I have been lazy typing all my documents for the past years with the introduction of computers and word processors. Is your handwriting readable?

lamtieuyen Computer or no computer, my hand-writing has been like "chicken scratch" (or so I'm told) since I was little. If I really try, I could print it really neat, but cursive - tough luck. But on the good side - no one could copy my homework.

bestseller books

switlyf @switlyf (649) • Philippines 15 Sep 08

have you ever read a bestseller book but find it not so interesting or wondering how it became bestseller?

2 responses

lamtieuyen Bestsellers are just like its label "bestseller". Yes, I know it sounds vague and lame, but what I'm getting at is the reason it became popular is through recommendations or something similar, so it gets pass through and people actually buys it, it hits the...

lamtieuyen I like both types, but it will all come down to the plot. If it's interesting enough to keep the series going, etc. Most of the time, it is, but sometimes I could see some that shouldn't be in a series in the first place. There are pros and cons with both...

lamtieuyen His first book that I read was The Count of Monte Cristo and I really like it. It's probably one of the best book ever written in those old days. I like it way more than some of the so-called "classics". I actually read "The Three Musketeers" after reading...

lamtieuyen I think I only read like one on the list, but I browsed through the men's list out of curiosity and I read more on the men's list than the women's list. Strange or what? Maybe because most of them was either required reading for English classes.

lamtieuyen I think it does in a sense. Like if you like to read mystery books or suspense ones, you're into solving problems or puzzles? Or like to analyze things with your brain? *shrugs* Just a common example but maybe it's just that you find it interesting.

lamtieuyen It's a very good book. It's very touching and inspirational. And yes, I agree if you don't want to buy it, you can go to your local library and borrow it. It's quite an easy and fast read, but it gets you thinking about life. I haven't watch the movie yet so I...
