		<description>Great post.  I totally agree that the first impression is very important.  On my blog I've tried to keep things simple.  Meaning not a lot of distracting ads within the main content area.  Though I do have some text ads I've tried to make sure that they flow with the content and not take away from it.  I can't stand needing to scroll through a bunch of ads to find the next post.  Drives me nuts.

I don't believe I have a "fast food" blog but I think I still need to get to the "fine dining" stage.  My question is how do I get some dinner conversation going.  I have traffic coming in but no one wants to talk (except for those darn spammers).  Any ideas that I can use to improve my blog?

		<description>Very interesting analogy. Not something I would have ever thought of, but you do make some excellent points. You only have one chance to make a first impression whether its  in a restaurant or on you blog.

		<description>There is a huge number of them ... a prime example would be "build for AdSense" splogs ... while they do deliver some form of information - I can only compare it to the lowest nomination of fast food joint ...

		<description>You had me at food :)  Nice post.  Is there a 'fast food' blog that comes to mind?
