Poll – Do You Prefer Blogs with Just One Author?

Recently, I’ve become a little turned off by some more popular blogs that are becoming primarily filled with guest authors content, and wondered how others felt about blogs and reading guest posts.
If you read blogs on a regular basis, I would love your vote on this poll:
[polldaddy poll="2478477"]
Some of my favorite blogs were started by one person, and though they do have guest posts, the original author is still the primary content creator. When guest posts start outnumbering the original authors posts though, I believe it’s time for me to stop following. I guess, I’m just tired of reading guest posts.

I can understand your frustration if the original author is suddenly not the main key player or is just too busy to post himself and really the blog is not after him then. Especially if you are used to a certain voice when reading the blog. As for me, I voted for “I don’t care how many authors a blog has, as long as the articles are good”.
Till then,
Jean
A day later, and I’m wondering if I should just kill off this poll. I’m beginning to think it’s a who cares thing.
