Yes or No

One of the blogs I frequent had a wonderful post on "Making your blog more visitor friendly." 
I did some changes...hopefully you can all feel more comfortable here.
One of the suggestions was not to have music.
Seems like most of the blog readers out there agree.
I know at least two of you (my faithful readers) have told me you like the music and put my blog on while you are surfing the net or doing house work.  My hubby will put it on to nap!  heehee

SO...my question to you (I want to keep my readers reading & commenting wink wink!):

Yes or No to music on my blog?

(majority rules here, so cast your vote)

Thanks!

I read that post too and though hmm . .. (I think I double checked my "post a comment" ease haha).

I do love your music selections (I did tell you that a while back, right?? I do). But then I do get on other people's blogs and go WHOA 'cause this loud stuff is playing over mine. I say leave it. But maybe pause it so people can push play??

I don't have my speakers on...but don't care for music on blogs, especially when they have a post with a video and I turn up my volume and it conflicts with each other.
my vote NO! and I will be back with 33 anons..bha h ah aa

Mandi...how do I pause it?

two sides to every coin LOL. its your blog put on it what ever you like. on the flip side the more you add the longer the blog takes to load. I use Firefox with the No script plug in and it blocks music players and videos automatically and everything that runs off the scripting language. I have to allow it aka unblock. I rarely if ever use the internet to listen to music cause I have music or a movie always going on in my room. mwah have a great day

I would vote no, but then if I visit a blog with music on, I instantly hit the mute button.

I think it depends on the site, but I prefer no music.

I set my machine on mute too so it doesn't bother me, except when it makes the page much harder to load.

On the other hand, I come because I enjoy your art and love reading your views on things and if the music is related to what you're talking about and you state clearly so, I would definitely turn the music on. KWIM? :)

So I think the best option might be for the reader to have the options whether to turn it on or off easily?

(I'm still waiting to read Anne's other 32 anon comments. LOL)

K...you still read my blog! How sweet of you! How have you been?

Pom...you always have such nice things to say! Thank you. I too am waiting for Anne's 32 anon comments!

Thanks, ladies, you are great!

Monique said...

I don't mind either way, Christine!
If the music bothers me, I can always hit the mute button like Kate.

Kate said...
