Fostering an open social community

I’ve made a lot of small improvements to my blog recently.
I wanted to make my blog theme more personal and give people the opportunity to share my posts and leave comments. There’s still a lot of work to be done, but for now I’m quite happy with the results.
I believe a blog is a public space where people can come and go freely, but I want them to feel at home anyway. A cosy place they can return to whenever they want.
Building an open social community means giving people the opportunity to share and discuss ideas and thoughts. I think the social web is based on building connections between people and individual blogs can play a huge role in that.
