However, even if somebody's interests are other than "Blogging", if people blog about them, they are bloggers :-) and every blogger (or most of them) is eager to learn more about blogging, marketing the blog etc etc So, while I do not want to suggest that there are no people who simply go around and zoom and zoom just to get some attention, I would not assume that everybody who zooms articles on topics different than his or her own blog is just pulling some "dirty" tricks. I for example have a blog, that is not about blogging but about my hobby and passion. But in order to be able to keep up I read lots of blogs about blogging etc... And if I like I Stumble, Digg or now Zoom them, eventhough they have nothing to do with the topic of my own blog I also understand what do you mean.

I'm always amazed at the lengths people will go to. ;) As you said, the most important thing for you will be to make BZ friends that share your interests. The people that are getting the most zooms, and the most traffic are the ones that are making friends and participating by visiting sites. It seems like you're doing that and if you keep doing it you'll see it pay off more and more as time goes on! That’s a very interesting observation Eric!

I haven't had that problem, but I can see people doing that and actually thinking it's a good idea. It never ceases to amaze me what people will do to try to get traffic, even if they aren't smart enough to realize that traffic that isn't interested in what they have to say is useless to them.
