- 7 Ways to use StumbleUpon as a Discovery Tool: great write up from Meg at Dipping into the Blogpond about how to use StumbleUpon to track down new blogs and websites.
- I need the URLs for these 142,000 blogs: no, that’s not a deceptive headline just to drive up page loads, Anthony at The Local, the Australian blogging resource, wants the URLs of Australian blogs that are hosted by Blogger, and is looking for a developer who can help him collect them.

@ Michael - you’re welcome and thanks for the compliment :)
