I’m in the process of redoing my blogroll. I had to reformat my hard drive (which made me lose my current blogroll). Thankfully I had a copy from mid-march so I’m not too far behind. I’ve mentioned I have a large blogroll and once it hits over 2000 feeds things start to go nuts. I [...]
I mentioned in my podcast that I was going to start commenting more on blogs…and that I regularly edit my blogroll. What happened almost immediately after I posted that podcast? Windows started giving me all kinds of errors:

From Robert Scoble:
How does that traffic come? Well, in today’s Internet, three ways:
1) Through search engines like MSN, Yahoo, Google.
2) Through main stream media (a link from MSN’s home page, for instance, sent Dave Winer 200,000 visitors) and an article in the New York Times sent more than 10,000 people to ActiveWords’ site, Buzz Bruggeman [...]
