The Last To Strike Back

A bunch of people were disenchanted with their Technorati rankings and links, and they had reposted their links in an effort to influence the "authority number" of everyone for the better.

I had given up on the "authority number" a long time ago, were just never to be recognized (i.e. Princess Ladybug's link to Cormac Writes still hasn't taken place). I was more frustrated about the lack of updates and the occasional refusal to update certain posts, despite my manual submitting the pings.

Now, I am the last one to jump into this, only because of my blogs, this one in particular is still on the old system and template. I love hand-typing the links in and such, though I'm sick of manually having to adjust the color of the type on longer posts whenever I add further dialog to a post.

Well, here it goes and unlike my actual links, this will be a "no-frills description linkage" and note the two new entries that were snuck in within the past week, The Gifted Typist and The Baroness Von Bloggenschtern.

Many thanks for your efforts, WP.

Angel,

Where would my blogs be without you?

Chris,

No, thank you, Chris. You and the few who started this, are like the cats who first signed the Declaration of Independence, while the rest of us waited until everything was nice and safe.

Thanks Cormac! Feels good to be included.

Robert,

First, welcome to this dingy corner of the web.

Second and most importantly; thank you for providing a venue for so many voices in this world, that should rightfully be heard and that might have gone unheeded.

You have provided literally hours of entertainment for all of us and I hope to say "thank you" on behalf of all of your authors and readers.

WP: Thanks so much for the include - I cherish every keystroke that it took to put up my link - sorry it's so damn long!

BT dubs, checked out the great merchandise at your stall; I just have to decide - but I'm procrastinating...

Blogger is that so wrong? said...

The extra plug is always appreciated WP! I'm always curious how people even get started finding others in the blogworld. Ships passing in the night.... or something like that.

You shop is my Little Shop of Horrors.
I have nightmares about that word "Rewrite."

Even writing that word makes me break out in a rash

Baroness,

You're welcome. Amazingly enough, it isn't the longest URL (Amazing Adventures wins that) and any typing is on me, because I insist on keeping the archaic template going and I didn't want to " cut & paste" out of love.

"BT dubs, checked out the great merchandise at your stall; I just have to decide - but I'm procrastinating..."

That's all right, take your time and I understand that I am the "Typhoid Mary (Mario?)" of procrastination.

ITSW,

You're welcome for the plug and I have no idea how readers discover blogs. I do know that people regularly complain about our society being empty and vapid, then they miss out on the fine culture that blogs like yours bring to the table.

Gifted,

Unfortunately, that shirt came from a joking reaction to The Missus and she was right, it did needed to be rewritten. I hate it with vengeance, but it is a necessary evil.

Thank you?

I'm still confused by how this works!

I guess it's time for me the jump on this bandwagon - one of these days....

You're a legend. You are.

56 links typed out!

I know in words in you (or at least i do)type out more than this but somehow, typing "http://" over and over and over would test my endurance.

didn't make the cut.

perhaps i should visit here more.

sigh.

Thanks, toots.

I've nicknamed "Technorati", F--kuroti and Jackorati because link backs don't appear unless you beg and even if you beg it doesn't always help. They whack blog authority at their discretion and they update your "latest" blog post a week too late.

Becky,

You're welcome?

Beth explained it best.

Coaster,

If you have the time.

Bridget,

"typing "http://" over and over and over would test my endurance."

Er, actually, I cut & pasted that bit of code, because I'm always mistyping that.

Book,

Maybe I should visit you more, though I imagine you being added fairly soon.

Katie-lah,

YES!

Yes I do, Sally, yes I do.
