So, who's worthy of your coveted link section on your blog?
Today, instead of working like a fevered dog, I read blogs. Lots of them. In fact, I left comments on quite a few, too. Some of these blogs, I've been reading for months, and some, I just started reading recently. Some of these fine folks have links to my website, but not everyone and there is no direct correllation between length of time I've been reading and commenting on their blogs and whether or not I have a link.
That made me think about who I link to, and why. The answers are not good. There's little ryhme and less reason to why I link to folks on that sidebar menu. Sometimes, it's because they have useful professional information. Sometimes, it's because they're funny. Or, because their writing really touched me in some way or another. Sadly, sometimes, it's little more than a very limited popularity contest. If I like you, you get a link. Sometimes, I just like people, even though I may not agree with them or be a part of their world at all, but, still, I like them, so...
Yeah, I know, it's so very, very Junior High of me, but, well, so be it.
So, why do you all link to other people's blogs? And, more importantly, why do you not link to others?
