Yeah, I guess this post was a continuation of our conversation on your post.
What you say here in this comment is true. As a sort of case study, if you will, I have looked at some of the food bloggers on here and they actively support each other. All these people, if you look at their posts, they don't dabble, they don't meander and they don't screw around. I think a similar strategy is employed with geographic areas/tags (i.e. #teamsouthafrica) and works well.
Maybe there are others in your area and you can start a tag yourself? #teamwashingtonstate or whatever?
Or what about a tag for all of us so we can find each other? #idontpostcrap :D
