Blogger Notes

I'd buy, but that'd kind of defeat the purpose...

October 30, 2005 12:08 PM

and now you have another visitor! I wonder if my coming here will increase or devalue your blog? I'm going for the latter.

Thanks for dropping by my blog and sorry about the annoying pop ups. I don't know where they come from but I get them too at times.

Cheers,

T

October 30, 2005 1:45 PM

SSB, you can be my shill.

Tina, I'm sure that you can only increase my worth.

October 30, 2005 2:04 PM

Mine is around $600, I know it's not much but where can I get this money? It's two month's rent after all... :)

October 30, 2005 2:35 PM

Can I have 10%? Pretty please?

October 30, 2005 3:33 PM

My blog has a Technorati value of $9,032.64.

BlogShares gives FAIR a value of $3,128.28. Syllogism is $157.72 of that; Sylvana Finds adds another $46.77.

As for being a pile of hooey, it's easy for the author to believe they have no effect on readers, but I have been stunned a few times when I find my words being quoted in places I never could have imagined. For good or ill, some folks actually think our thoughts have import.

Poor saps...sigh.

October 30, 2005 4:13 PM

$15,242 and change!
I wonder how they reach a value?
In my case, it's certainly not due to good writing or interesting subject matter.
It must be my blogroll...

October 30, 2005 4:35 PM

Wow, that's so cool! I just recently saw my blog on blogshares, but I forget what that value is. This one put it at just over $16,000. As tempting as it might be I think I'll hold off. LOL

October 31, 2005 7:26 AM

Dr. Who, I so want that money!

Indiaiynke, in time your blog will be worth that much or more.

Indigo Red, I try not to take myself too seriously, but it is nice to be acknowledged.

Sierrabella, I thought your price would be high with the traffic you get on your blog. There is an article that explains how they come up with the amount, but it required too much effort to figire it out...so I'm with you on the link theory.

Rae Ann, good job! I'm too impatient too hold off. I WANT MY MONEY NOW!! ;)

October 31, 2005 7:59 AM

Maybe we can sell them on ebay.

October 31, 2005 10:20 AM

mine isn't worth anything. i'm so bummed.

October 31, 2005 1:31 PM

Dang, I'm just 9,032$ something or other. I'm half the woman I used to be.:)

October 31, 2005 3:00 PM

Pink Lady, now that's an idea. people will buy ANYTHING on Ebay!

Cookie Christine, they must be wrong.

Beo, you got more than most!

October 31, 2005 6:11 PM

Hah! $26,533.38!
I feel so good about myself.
Sort of.

October 31, 2005 8:44 PM

Spinning Girl, ooo I'm so jealous! I read your recent post. You are very deserving of a higher price than Syllogism.

October 31, 2005 9:58 PM

Mine is the same as yours, $18, 629.82, minus $18,629.00. Also, congrats on 7,000 well derserved hits.

November 01, 2005 3:36 AM

Dr. Max, thanks! And keep up the great underappreciated work!

November 01, 2005 7:42 AM

I'm worth a million oh thats to my boyfriend guess that don't count.

November 01, 2005 8:56 AM

Wow, mine was only .27

November 01, 2005 2:41 PM

Oooh, my dad and brother went to NZ last spring and said it's the most gorgeous place on earth! My dad loved it especially and has been thinking about retiring there!!!!

November 01, 2005 4:07 PM

Spencer, of course that counts, just not in blog worth.

Tayster, that's almost like getting a penny tip.

ORF, I have a friend from NZ. She didn't say much about the scenery, but she did say that it was a nice place to live.

November 01, 2005 9:25 PM

I am afraid to check the value of mine. It would be too tempting to pawn it off for the quick cash.

November 02, 2005 12:18 PM

I don't think I could buy yours, since I couldn't even afford to buy mine at $9032 and change. Luckily, I already "own mine, and yours is available to browse free of charge!

November 02, 2005 1:23 PM

If you go to NZ. Please come visit me in Tasmania We are going to Aukland for New Years. Maybe we could meet up. What a hoot!

November 09, 2005 4:26 AM

Maria, I would sell and just start up another blog.

The Doc, so true!

Wendy A, if I get down to NZ I most certainly would come and visit you! That would be great. We could go out checking road kill together.

November 09, 2005 7:05 PM

At least she didn't get frozen to the freezer..I would really feel bad about that!!!

October 29, 2005 12:00 AM

I hope your mom has a quick, uneventful recovery. Glad to hear you are doing so well in your new job.

October 29, 2005 2:13 AM

Ditto! As always, keep us posted!

October 29, 2005 8:35 AM

SSB, but I didn't have to wait hours for help. THAT would have really sucked!

OldRoses, I'm sure that she will be fine. She's stubborn. And thanks about the job. Even though I had told them I was a fast learner, I don't think they realized just how fast.

Indiaiynke, thanks, and I will.

October 29, 2005 11:32 AM

OMG! That's a lot of visitors... And looky here!

Sell your blog now!!!. 'Cept I dunno you sell it to who, where, when.

My old blog, where I don't post at all anymore is worth: $4,516.32

My new one, where I post all the time now, is worth $0.00... :^(

Whaaaaaaaaah...

October 29, 2005 1:34 PM

Kidney Stones! Those are really painful. I hope everything goes well.

Hurry up and finish learning at work everything so you can blog again!

October 30, 2005 2:03 PM

Congrats.
Good for you.
Rotten luck, but your mom will be fine.

October 30, 2005 3:10 PM

I will think some good thoughts at your mom. Actually, I don't know your mother at all, so I'll think good thoughts at you and then you can forward them to your mom, okay?

October 30, 2005 3:12 PM

MacHeadcase, SSB actually showed this to me about an hour before you posted. I thought is was eerie that right after I put my blog in and was coming back to write a post about it that your comment was about that very thing. Spooky!

Shannon, aw, thanks. I'm blushing.

Indigo Red, that is what I thought, but my sister sent me a panicky email about it (she's not on their "talking to" list either, but of course she still loves them and worries about them).

The Doc, I will certainly forward your good thoughts to her.

October 31, 2005 7:37 AM

I hope your mother is alright Sylvana.Hugs to her and you.

October 31, 2005 10:21 AM

All will flock to you, eventually.

October 31, 2005 8:43 PM

Pink Lady, so far she's well. Thanks. I'll take that hug!

Spinning Girl, that is such a lovely premonition! Welcome to my blog!

October 31, 2005 9:40 PM

You don't have to worry about that with me...if you're quiet for that long I'll know something's wrong!

Plus I can't piss you off now that you're my sugar-momma...

October 23, 2005 8:44 PM

HAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!

oh, your poor dad! at least your brother lived nearby! your mom would have been SERIOUSLY PISSED if she had to spend 6 hours at a gas station, I think!

October 23, 2005 8:49 PM

Your dad obviously hadn't heard of the Lake Winnebego triangle which exists between Neenah, Menasha, and Appleton. Apparently, according to my grandpa, wives disappear there all the time.

October 24, 2005 12:21 AM

Hey, congrats on the job! Glad to hear it worked out for you!

Slowly coming back online. Great story about your Dad. I would like to say that could never happen to me, but the longer you're married the more you assume.

October 24, 2005 3:09 AM

Your mother sounds like a saint!

October 24, 2005 4:54 AM

Wow, an urban legend come to life! I'm glad it all worked out OK!

October 24, 2005 9:59 AM

Too funny. I would have killed him.

October 24, 2005 10:41 AM

SSB, maybe that is why I talk so much, I don't want to get left behind!

ESC, my dad would love to hear you say "your poor dad". It's all about him!

Shannon, I think I have heard that too, but I thought it was because of all the bars, strip clubs, and porn shops.

Dr. Max, thanks. I'm pretty excited about my job.
My dad is impatient and in his rush to get something done, he often makes pretty big mistakes.

OldRoses, my mother is far from sainthood. But she can be pretty patient, especially with my dad.

Indiaiynke, urban legend! That is what I was thinking when I heard this story! But this kind of stuff seems to happen to my family a lot.

Sandy, me too!

October 24, 2005 12:18 PM

Holy crap, what a story! Congrats on your job! That's awesome.

October 24, 2005 12:57 PM

Awesome.

October 24, 2005 1:46 PM

Oh Poor dad.I cant believe he never noticed until he got home she wasnt there.Its very funny though.He'll never live it down.

October 24, 2005 2:59 PM

Oh please tell me your mom was fully dressed, unlike the urban legend!

Great story.

October 24, 2005 3:56 PM

Okay, this is why you shouldn't read these things at work! I laughed right out load. Then again I've met your parents which makes it even funnier!

October 24, 2005 3:57 PM

This thing between your dad and brother is similar to what happened between my father and his father. In 1940, Dad(18 yrs) beat-up Granpa(42 yrs) and promptly headed down the road to who knew what. Dad got a job as a machinist making springs for British Spitfire airplanes. Shortly thereafter, WWII was on and Dad enlisted in the Navy. It wasn't until I was 50, that I learned why the two never got along.

I wonder how many sons and fathers part violently. Whatever the number, it's sad.

October 24, 2005 6:21 PM

Maria, thanks. I'm very happy at my new job. It worked out just right.

Derek, my family has lots of strange but true stories.

Pink Lady, my dad has a fairly good sense of humor so he will survive. But we are obliged to tease him about this!

Sierrabella, I'm pretty sure that she would not have left the car to use the bathroom if she wasn't dressed, but you know- I didn't ask!

Astoria, my family is pretty interesting, huh?

Indigo Red, I know why they aren't getting along. My dad has issues. He has been working on them, but he has done so much in the past it will take a lot before we will believe that he has actually changed. We love him dearly, but my brothers and sister have decided that they can't live a healthy life with him in it as he is right now. I, on the other hand, being the upfront, no-nonsense person that I am, have found a strange balance with him. Of course, I'm always aware that things could change! As long as he keeps the lines of communication open instead of getting so pissed that he refuses to talk to me, I think we will be just fine.

October 24, 2005 7:00 PM

geez. and i thought my family was crazy.

October 25, 2005 3:40 PM

Cookie Christine, I'm sure that your family is crazy. Crazy families produce interesting people.

October 26, 2005 7:08 PM

thats funny!!!

October 27, 2005 9:12 PM

Randi, even my mom was laughing about that one. As I always say, funny is funny!

October 29, 2005 11:26 AM

Great Story! Your poor dad must feel like he is going insane.

October 30, 2005 3:52 AM

No, Wendy A, I'm sure that he KNOWS that he is going insane.

October 30, 2005 1:59 PM

HAHAHAHAHA!!! That story is hysterical!
