So, I was thinking… No… that’s okay… I can wait until you stop laughing…

(or): I am going to interview the world…

As I was doing my little comments on that last Inner View interview posts, it struck me that this series has a few flaws;

1. Asking the same questions over and over does make it easier to do lots of them, but you might get bored, even though I add a few special question at the end just for each person.

2. Some of the questions don’t work as well on some people as they do on others.

3. You might get sick of reading them if this is all I post.

4. More and more people are signing up to be interviewed, and I don’t want to post 20 of them a day, or have this blog turn into only an interview blog.

Also, I learned something else. I love asking you all crazy questions and learning about you and then making funny comments about what I learned. And I think we are all learning stuff from this. I bet you didn’t know that my followers included such a wide range of crazy people.

So I am toying with a new idea…

I am going to interview THE ENTIRE PLANET!!!

Okay, not really… but at least everybody who has internet access… or at least the ones who blog… alright, fine, all the people who have a blog on WordPess and who either follow my blog or at least see it on whatever topic walls I tag the posts as, and happen to get sucked in.

Did I mention that some of the people who are lined up for the Inner View thing are people who just spotted it in the reader, and not actual minions? Yeah, I have to interview people I don’t even know… that is how much I care… but that is cool, because I am giving them a voice in the wilderness.

So how, I hear you wondering, am I going to interview thousands of hundreds of dozens of people all at once???

Simple.

My idea is this…

A new series called: CRAZY QUESTIONS!

You see, when I was preparing for this Inner View thing… yes, I actually prepared, shut up… I was trying to come up with good questions to ask people. Not regular interview questions. Good, funny, weird questions. Now I have a list of them, and my crack squirrels are hard at work thinking up new ones.

So once or twice a day, I am going to do a Crazy Question post. It will just be one question at a time. That way, you can all give a good, clever answer in the comments. And then we can talk about our answers… you can see how this could be fun, right? And you can also see how this will be good for my blog stats too… oh, get over it, you know that is what I live for, I am doing the first un-self-centered thing ever by doing the Inner Views and giving people a place to meet new bloggers and get some attention, you didn’t really think I had turned into Saint, did you? If you want unselfishness, follow the Pope… or my friend Zoe from the last interview…

    You know what you could do – you could ask a blogger, say, 3 questions, and ask that blogger to answer them and think of 3 more questions. Then you pick the next blogger to answer these 3 questions and come up with 3 new questions, then you pick the next blogger to answer them, and so on. That way, you can interview as many people as you want, with all different questions, and you only need 3 questions to start with.

    Did you post this before or after my comments your first Innerview? Just seems too coincidental that I suggest you make some changes & then you post you’re going to make changes.
