Blog Worth

Thanks to Christine, I found out today that you can buy Neurotic Fishbowl stock (well, buy it in a game; not for real). I haven't had a chance to mess around with the site yet, but I guess it works under the same principal of those celebrity stock markets, only with blogs.

Since the only time I bought stock ($100 worth of PSI), the company went out of business, this should be a lot more fun and a lot less strain on the wallet.

You don't actually have to put that ugly graphic up, that functionality isn't implemented yet. Also they're asking people not to link to them.

whenever I find a blog through blogsnob, I seem to have a habit of reading down until I find something that interests me, and then comment on it. Unfortunately, no one but me reads back 5 or 6 entries to check for no comments. Crazy :D Anyway- I think this is awesome! It's my little blogger dork's dream: to someday be a part of that site... *magical moment, hehe* Rock on, and come visit me sometime!
