    Amazing how many people have blank 'about' pages on blogs

    I guess they install themes and forget they have an about page and leave them totally empty. Why waste a page? Delete them or put some text on them. No point in having a blank page.

              I always write something in the about pages on my blogs. It is usually the last thing I do though and sometimes put it off.

                Yep, that's why I always rewrite and add text to the About page, one every two weeks for maximum effect.

                  That is true too. Though never really sure how much the actual theme matters.

                        The default theme is probably a lot better than a lot of the other ones out there when it comes to SEO. There's a lot of crap out there, both free and paid themes. Bad code, headings, not using all the functions properly etc.

                        Although if you know what you're doing, a custom theme is a great improvement.
