Breaking hearts blogging

September 22nd, 2007 4:09:08 pm pst by Sterling Camden

Last month, Tish and Mike awarded me the I <3 your blog award (where <3 is supposed to be a heart).  Then, before I could rush with all the alacrity of a three-toed sloth to respond, Tish slapped another award on me (I don’t know but think maybe she likes me).  This time it’s the Break Out Out Blogger award.

This award is supposed to honor bloggers who are just beginning to really get noticed.  Well, despite what Google Analytics may have to say about that, I do appreciate getting noticed by Tish.

As for the blogs that I “heart”, that award belongs to everyone on my blogroll.  And here they are:

Thanks Tish! I like you, too. And I’m still planning to answer the questions you posted on BlogsWeLuv, as soon as I can make the time.

Thanks! I hope the list is in order of the attractiveness and brilliance of the blogger.

Heh, since Dinosaur Comics is near the top, you may be right!

Actually, I have no idea how the list is ordered. It was generated that way from FeedDemon, but it certainly doesn’t seem to have much to do with the order in which I subscribed to the feeds, or which ones I read most recently, or anything else I can think of. Brilliance must be it.

Hey, thanks for the nod, Chip! As to the order, nah, it can’t be either of those – since MZM isn’t at the top – or the bottom! Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

BTW, I found quite a few of the people on this list among your commenters, Shelley. The discussions on your site can be some of the most interesting reading on the web.

[...] that you read on a regular basis. What makes it unique? It’s hard to pick just one among the many great blogs that I read, but the one that really challenges my thinking on a wide variety of topics is Burningbird, by [...]

Thanks, Chip. I can never remember if it’s heart or hearts (I think it’s the plural), but I’ll try and memorize the numeric code for it. (:
