Ecosystem Stats for Radio Free Blogistan

Christian Crumlish

I'm moving up in the ecosystem. I think I'm number 118 now. (B said: "I thought you were number 4." I said "That's just at Salon. This is the whole world." "The whole blog world you mean," she said. "We call it the blogosphere" I said, "or blogistan.")

Last week there were 15 blogs linking to me. This week there are 40. Thanks, y'all. Then again, many of these links are embedded and will eventually scroll off the home pages of the linkers, so I need to pimp this site to blogrolls. Maybe I need to add that Blogroll Me, Daddy, 8 to the Bar! link to my page template.

On this day in 2003
I've created a monster: Pete Hoskins of This Pirate Kills Fascists has recorded the first known rendition of my li'l ditty (I Sing the Blogistan Electric). Amazing stamina! Some moments really cracked me up, especially with the overrunning lines! It occurs to me that the chorus should really be "this'll be the day blogging died"... (Memes)
Annotated Blogistan Pie: Yes, I would call it an obsession. I have added a series of clarifying (or obfuscating, as the case may be) hyperlinks to the worst song parody to come along since Being for the Benefit of Mr. Tim, Revolution is not an AOL Keyword, or even We Didn't Start the Weblogs.... (Blogosphere)
DeanSpace to coordinate online campaign efforts: Howard Dean's presidential campaign has already distinguished itself by its savvy embrace of the Internet and weblogs (or "chatrooms" as I heard one uncomfortable political pundit refer to them on NPR a few weeks back) and the wellspring of enthusiasm coming from the grassroots. It's not surprising when you consider that... (People Power)
