It's tricky, I don't want to sound like an ingrate, but I'm just trying to say it means nothing much in terms of quality assessment, it just means something in terms of potential traffic volume. Durr, in other words, it's back to that old problem of quality-vs-quantity. At the same time, I didn't want to look like a total cur by ignoring it, either. Hence the shout out, "Hey!, look!, look!, Look at me!" Well, if the day ever comes that I buy a $-lottery ticket and I win really big, how about I send all you good bloggers a cheque, how's that? Better, t'aint it? ;-)
