5-10 times a day. My favourite internet activity. This site rocks man.
2. Do you use the search feature and if so, how often?
Yes, I LOVE it. Search feature for archive you mean? Archives rocks. We ALL should read it. It gives a much better idea where are you coming from.

Absolutely, saves me trouble to browsing all the blogs on by one. I LOVE this feature from the start.

No. Any time I hear music, something bad happens to me. I'm serious! And it makes the page load a bit slower.

Yes. I love that forum. It's the best.

Same.

Fast loading. Radio makes it a bit slower though.
10 What improvements would you like to see here? Feature requests, modifications, etc.
In MLMBlog, there is a section “recent comments� as some past entries are linked separately on google and keep getting comments. I won't know if some one has commented here on some past posts. I wanna know, so we all can respond to them.
Also, editing comment would be nice. It does compromise the candidness of some comments though.
11. Any additional comments?
Nope, keep up the good work. Feefdom of speech!
1. At least once a day.
2. Never
3. No, I havent, not yet anyways.
4. I might click on it once in a while. I usually go to the forum right away though.
5. Yes
6. Searching for current A/Q info because an ex-friend got involved with the big bad Q and I had to arm myself.
7. The amount of posting you do on this blog is just right IMO.
8. Once in while.
9. Very fast.
10. Nothing comes to mind.
11. Keep up the good work!!!

I use it about 2-3 times per month.

Yes. I enjoy the diversity of the music. I have found a lot of great stuff I would probably never hear otherwise.

I am.

One per day is just right.

2 or 3 times daily
Do you use the search feature and if so, how often?
Rarely
Do you use the QBlog News page? If so, how often and if not, why not?
Yes, at least 3 times a day, possibly more if I'm tracking a thread at one of the particular sites

N/A

Do you use the search feature and if so, how often?No.
Do you use the QBlog News page? If so, how often and if not, why not? No. Limited time at work.
Do you ever listen to the QBlog Radio? If so, do you enjoy it? If not, why not? Yes. Yes, I enjoy it.
Are you a member of the QBlog Forum and if not, why not? No. I just read it because I don't have 1/10th the experience or knowlege the Members do.
How did you first find this site, if you remember? You posted it on that Quixtar board that went defunct and readonly. I think.
Would you like it if this blog had more posts, fewer posts or to just stay the same (about one per day)? One a day is good. Sparks a good amount of discussion. Other blogs that have multiple posts, their comments section for each post dies shortly after a new post goes up.

Yes.
Is this site fast loading, slow loading or just right?
Just right.
What improvements would you like to see here? Feature requests, modifications, etc.

No, just haven't gotten around to it.
How did you first find this site, if you remember?
I was lookinmg for information about Quixtar that was (if possible) unbiased. I was looking for info that wasn't emotion -based. I have relatives in "the Biz" and wanted to learn more about it from an abjective source.

same
Do you ever click on the "Recommended Blogs" links?

) How often do you visit this site? Once a day? Once a week? Once a month? Never?
Check your logs - at least once a day if I am in the US
2) Do you use the search feature and if so, how often?
Haven't needed to as of yet
3) Do you use the QBlog News page? If so, how often and if not, why not?
A couple of times
4) Do you ever listen to the QBlog Radio? If so, do you enjoy it? If not, why not?
Several times. It's OK, but doesn't align with my somewhat...eclectic taste
5) Are you a member of the QBlog Forum and if not, why not?
Of course - I am the lowly peptide
6) How did you first find this site, if you remember?
A Google search for "T.O.D. Amway fraud information" - this was one of the top 10
7) Would you like it if this blog had more posts, fewer posts or to just stay the same (about one per day)?
Current level is fine
8) Do you ever click on the "Recommended Blogs" links?
Occasionally
9) Is this site fast loading, slow loading or just right?
It's fine...
10) What improvements would you like to see here? Feature requests, modifications, etc.
Blog comments would be in the forum, perhaps in a "Blog Topic Discussion" forum
Any additional comments?
Thanks for effort, Bud...
1. How often do you visit this site? Once a day? Once a week? Once a month? Never?
At least 2-3x a day - I check for the daily post, then I like to read the comments.
2. Do you use the search feature and if so, how often?
Yes, when I'm looking for something specific that I recall reading on a topic. For example, I may want to refresh my memory on WWDB stuff.
3. Do you use the QBlog News page? If so, how often and if not, why not?
Yes, about 1x a week.
4. Do you ever listen to the QBlog Radio? If so, do you enjoy it? If not, why not?
Occasionally. I'm not really into a lot of different music, but once in a while I'll listen to it. When I do, I usually listen to more than one -
5. Are you a member of the QBlog Forum and if not, why not?
No. I've spent some time reading there, but I've never participated. Seems every time I visit the Forum, I'm at work and I don't typically take the time to respond to outside stuff at work.
6. How did you first find this site, if you remember?
I believe it was a link from another site - maybe Scott Larsen's? Or maybe QBlog site was mentioned there, and I decided to check it out.
7. Would you like it if this blog had more posts, fewer posts or to just stay the same (about one per day)?
I appreciate the time it takes and the thought that goes into the one post per day. Atho I love reading Quixtar discussions, I think if you were to increase your posts, you wouldn't put as much thought into them and they wouldn't be as fresh or relevant. After all, I'm sure this isn't the ONLY think you have to do with your time! I like the one a day - it's perfect.
8. Do you ever click on the "Recommended Blogs" links?
Always.
9. Is this site fast loading, slow loading or just right?
Seems fine to me.
10. What improvements would you like to see here? Feature requests, modifications, etc.
I think it would be interesting to have a Features day. Like a reader would suggest a topic, or bring up an issue. For example: Readers - what is your experience with.......name a topic and have the reader tell their LOS & experiences associated with that particular topic.
Any additional comments?

8. Yes
9. Yeah, fast enough
10. None
11. Nope
1. Daily
2. Have used the search fuction once -- recently, in fact. If you're thinking of tossing that, DON'T!

Yes, because I'm a forum junkie.

8. I click on “Recommended Blogs� once in awhile
9. The site loads quickly enough.
10. Improvements? Who am I to criticize? This is still the most organized blog I read.

Yes.
How did you first find this site, if you remember?
Not sure. It was a while ago.
Would you like it if this blog had more posts, fewer posts or to just stay the same (about one per day)?
I think its about right as it is.

All the time. This is my home base on this topic.
Is this site fast loading, slow loading or just right?
Again, I have dial up. EVERYTHING is freaking slow.
What improvements would you like to see here? Feature requests, modifications, etc.
Interviews with who's who of AmQuix if you could swing it. I think it would be a nice touch, and people's words or lack thereof would help speak volumes.
