When I was an active member on WB - I wasn't all that active reading the blogs compared to my activity on the boards.
Since I've been here, I think my time is pretty split even. I love reading the blogs and wish I had taken more time to read the WB blogs more religiously too!
And clearly - I'm obsessed with the boards! (I even checked it while on vaca! LOL)...
What do you prefer? (I guess this kind of defers to the boards bees)... but nonetheless...

I love both! I spend more time on the boards though since there are only so many blogs posted/day.
grapefruit / 4649 posts
I read all or close to all of the blog posts and then if I have extra time I like to hang out on the boards. The comments on a lot of the posts are often great too. It is a great community!

I'm definitely a board bee at heart, but every blog post is so relevant to my life here... So I have to say half and half!
pear / 1769 posts
I spend most of the time on the boards. I skim through the blog, but I usually only read posts that catch my attention and just look at the pictures otherwise.
GOLD / wonderful pea / 17697 posts
I keep up with the blog, but mostly stay on the boards.
GOLD / pomelo / 5167 posts
i do both! more boards then blog, but i read many of the blog posts.
wonderful olive / 19353 posts
I check both, but I check the boards first and spend a majority of my time on the boards.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
I would say 60/40 boards/blogs. I of course love the blogs (being a blogger!) but as you all know, I LOVE ME THE BOARDS!!!!!

When I was on WB I only read the blogs and very rarely went on the boards(I went in them more once I got preggers). Here it's the opposite, I rarely read the blogs, unless something catches my eye, but I check the boards everyday(even if I don't comment)

Back on WB I spent almost all my time on the boards. I'd skim the blogs when I was bored and read things that looked interesting to me. Here on HB it's pretty split I think! I respond more on the boards but I read all of the blog posts!
blogger / honeydew / 7081 posts
On WB I stick to the boards unless something catches my eye on the blog. Here, I still stick mostly to the boards - but find the posts SO much more relevant. I'd have to say 70/30 boards/blog.
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts
I read and comment on most of the blogs and I love the boards too. So 50/50
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
50/50. I read almost every blog post but I spend a lot of time here on the boards too. On WB I did less blog reading. There were soooo many bloggers I couldn't keep track of them all. And most of the posts were about DIY stuff and I didn't have a very DIY wedding. I guess I like the blogs here better because most of them are actually educational for me and where I'm at in life.
GOLD / eggplant / 11517 posts
It's a lot easier to stay caught up on the blogs here. I blogged for Weddingbee so I tried to participate on the blogs as much as possible to support my fellow bloggers. But I love, love message boards. So I'd say 50/50.
pomegranate / 3729 posts
I read all of the blog posts, but I very rarely comment on them. I spend most of my time on the boards since they are easier to read on my phone while nursing!
cantaloupe / 6730 posts
I love the blogs and check throughout the day for a new one. The boards are fun, but I only check them when I have free time.
cantaloupe / 6687 posts
On WB i was mostly into the blog posts - 90/10
Totally opposite on HB - 90% boards and 10% blogs

@Coco Bee: He means it, too! He used to do the same on the WB boards.
admin / wonderful grape / 20724 posts
@Coco Bee: Haha are you testing me? I see all!!!!

That's not creepy at all, is it?
GOLD / wonderful coffee bean / 18478 posts
@mrbee: that image is just a tad bit menacing. eeeeeek!
I'm mostly on the boards and read the blogs that are relevant to my parenting stage/concerns/struggles/interests.
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21616 posts
@mrbee: oh good lord.
@Boogs: the WB boards too?! there were exponential numbers on WB. I can understand keeping up with HB...
honeydew / 7504 posts
On WB I ONLY read the blogs. I was never ever on the boards. But here on HB, I'd say it's about 40/60 blog/boards.
coconut / 8234 posts
I'm a message board junkie! But I read almost all the blogs on HB. On WB I only read one blogger who was getting married on the same date as me, other than that I was strictly on the boards.
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
I do both, but catch myself on the boards more than the blogs. I usually go and read the blog every day or two...or I will go a couple days and feel weird commenting on something that was posted 4 days ago.
