Hi Ashish, thank you for your input. My guess is the same as yours: my readers aren’t motivated to get involved. This is not a bad thing, or something I will want to correct, it’s just, as you said, I will avoid organizing such things in the future.
No problem, you don’t have to feel bad for not participating, I’m proud that you are one of my readers, and I’m happy you found time to comment here.

Hi,
The best way that if people will really participate is test some group writing project or come up with some idea where you can involve people to see if they really respond.

I tried doing it sometimes and as usual no body responded. I guessed i still don’t have that kind of readers who are willing to.

Thus decided not to start any thing like this.

I am not a php coder or wordpress thing else would have surely involved.

Thank you, Emma, I’m glad you liked my tip (and my boots )

Thanks for the tip for adsense deluxe and never blue ads. Learning PHP is on my list of things to do. I have noticed that the most popular contests are the ones that require the least amount of work. By the way the boots are pretty cool as well.

Diana, no problem, thank you for the intention I knew you don’t know php. I expected some lurkers to show up with this occasion, but it seems they continue to be quiet.

Congratulations!
I really wanted to participate, but I don’t know php, so nothing came out.

Hey, Pearl, you don’t have to feel bad about that.
I don’t think it is related to holidays. It is just they are probably tired after working all day long, so when it comes to blogging and online interaction, they just want to feel good.

Andrew, I’m sorry I didn’t get any “clients”, but I still think your site is cool, and I hope at least some of my readers tried your tool.

And my new boots look very nice

It’s a shame no one joined in, I thought you would get some interesting ones for sure.

you know, I had the post bookmarked, and even went back to it a couple of times but never got the time to sit down and work on it!!

even though I am happy you won the contest, and i congratulate you Simonne, I am going to try it just for the heck of it, although i am not good with programming - i completely suck at it! but I was thinking of using that site link you gave! someday
but i was thinking, could the holidays be a reason for people not wanting to do anything thats hard work?
