Check it out, some friends of mine:

I’m trying to keep up with the sudden influx of blogs written by people I know. I thought, for a while, that I was a lone blogger in my social circle, but not anymore. For some reason I’ll never understand, the people my age in my close-knit little hometown are addicted to online social networking, MySpace for example. For file sharing purposes, this makes perfect sense, but for blogging? MySpace makes crappy blogs. I guess they’re like kindergarden art projects, they look about as aesthetically pleasing, but if they’re made by someone you love, well, you want to tack it up on the fridge or someplace where you’ll see it often.

The problem is, the MySpace blogs are so crappy that they don’t even syndicate. In order to keep up with my friends, I have to:

  1. remember the web address.
  2. visit each address one after another

if I want to know whats going on. I prefer to read all the blogs I read at once, thanks to feed reading software.

The upside of all this is that I have been forced to begin the arduous task of cleaning out my wordpress links’s list — the list you see on Codex’s links page.

If you’re not on the list, and you want to be, post a comment here!
