Poll: What Topics Do You Enjoy Most on this Site?

I’m wondering what brings you here.

When I spun off the computer-specific content from my original site to the Maria’s Guides blog-based site, a bunch of regular blog readers were spun off with it. Those are people who came to visit my site specifically to learn more about using their computers and software.

The people that remain here are obviously interested in other topics. The question is, which ones?

So I’ve created a new poll to query visitors. I hope you’ll take a moment to let me know what you like to read about here. I’ll do my best to deliver the content people want to read about, so having your say is a good way to ensure that I keep writing what you want to read about.

Here’s the poll. It’ll also be in the rightmost sidebar, at least for a while.

What topic(s) do you enjoy most on this site? (choose up to 3)

    Frankly - I first landed here because I hoped to learn about WordPress. But then I delighted in reading just about anything you came up with. This site is uniquely YOU, and that’s what I like about it - although I also enjoy finding some useful pearls on this beach as well off and on that I would not have looked for otherwise.

    I signed up because I have a bunch of your books for Macs, including the new one for Leopard. Though I signed up primarily for computer information, I find your topics, especially on flying, to be very interesting and as well written as your books.

    I signed up because i have purchased all of your books on Mac OS X, including Leopard and was interested in any computer comments you made. I find your articles on flying to be very interesting, although I expect I will never own a helicopter.

    I came here from a link on a site about being self-employed, a subject of never ending fascination as I am a salaried employee. Since then, I like whatever you choose to write about. I suppose if I had to choose a topic, it’d be the way you write about your town, state or country because you give a completely different perspective from the usual (European) media one. It is much more real, and enjoyable.

    I also like reading about your lifestyle because it is such a contrast to my urban one. For example, it is refreshing to read about cherry drying even if I still do not know what this is (is it a harvesting method?)
