The journalist readers have been the biggest critiques of our writing. But they did not have the answer, though they certainly have the right to their opinions. And most of the opinions expressed in these blogs have definitely not been journalism. They have been information for the dancers, and what the readers want is evolving. The hits are holding up pretty good in spite of the scam, spam robot hits which amount to from 20% to 30% of the total hits in our entire blogosphere.
All our blogs are concentrating on the Island of Oahu, with 30000 potential readers. And the announcements of coming events are essential but not that important. The time for notice should not be the old fashion method - "Mark you calendars for next year ..." Two weeks is about right. Email flyer kind is "ho-hum" with minor interest. But what was doing in that last shindig you had is very interesting to the reader/dancers. Divided nicely in text and photos and a few comments from the attendees clinch the "social media" factor.
Then of course the main stay would be the fact that many of our readers are experience dancers. And we are picking some up in the neighbor islands. They have very valuable experience, and unique personal opinions. They have much good "street" advice that they could share with their fellow dancers. We lost a lot of ground when we lost Richie Fun and we hope he is recovering well.
That is what it will take to get this blog rolling again. And this blog will be concentrating in the Night Club scene. but of course the other blogs will benefit also. Let's get with it. With so many of our readers that are fans of night clubbing, this could become the first independent blog on this Island and be an example of how it is done because we will have so many good outside ideas.

with that dream, will your feet have the quality of dance.”
