2000 Bloggers lives on

Wow, lots of stuff today...

On the subject of the 2000 Bloggers social experiment, I can't put it much better than this from TwoKnives...

Two Knives » Blog Archive » Lessons learned from blogging about blogging

Lots of static...

Related to Tino Buntic's 2000 Bloggers experiment. TwoKnives weighs in with her thoughts and with links to, what appear to be, the original bemoaners (is that a word?) of the experiment and its consequential "positive" (as a negative?) change to their Technorati rankings. Mainly, TwoKnives is concerned that the links do not mean readers and she wants readers. Judging from the first few comments, Ms. Knives has readers! There are even "pile-on" comments on John Chow Dot Com about MyBlogLog. As I commented on TwoKnives, for me it's all about perspective. You can learn something from everyone you meet and you can find some value in every situation or circumstance. I choose to be positive about every experience - good or bad.

Update: Jeremiah Owyang, one of the original posters cited by TwoKnives, offers up some updates to his original post. Please read the updates!

Update2: More backlash about this. Now, Technorati has lumped us into the blog spam category. Just for putting a face on the blogosphere...

That was then...

This is from a couple weeks ago:

My blog is worth $3,387.24.
How much is your blog worth?

This is now:

My blog is worth $14,113.50.
How much is your blog worth?

I think it's fair to say, I've been doing some work around here. Seriously, though I think this is mostly due to two things:

1. 2000 Bloggers and
   
2. People wanting to see themselves in the birthday pictures :D

Ed Reif, from the great state of California, home of the Governator, In-n-Out Burger, and a lot of weirdness gives me a little plug. Go check out Ed's own experiments with the 2000 Bloggers...

2000 Bloggers follow-up

Just a little follow-up on this...

Tino Buntic has some updates on this cool experiment. He still has space available, so head over there and get in on the fun. Also, take note of this "social experiment", where blogger Steven Aitchison is conducting his own study of this interesting phenomena. Head on over there and put in your comments.

Oh, and the picture might be a cover for a book. Check out Joseph Jaffe's site, JaffeJuice, for more info.
