A spike in traffic to Frieddogleg (for our purposes, “spike” is defined as two or more visitors on the same day), all of it coming from here, caught my attention earlier today and prompted me to do a little additional sleuthing. It wasn’t hard to find the link.
BDR
has been a good friend of this blog almost from the beginning; a similar link
to one of my earliest posts produced a similar increase in traffic that helped
launch Frieddogleg into the blogosphere* back in ’09, scant weeks before we
lost Jon Swift forever. I couldn’t
be more delighted that he has done so once again, wittingly or not, to help
kick-start my renewed commitment to blogging (or “bleggalizing,” as BDR would
probably say).
Those
already familiar with BLCKDGRD need no introduction; those who aren’t need only
know that BLCKDGRD is a quirky blog featuring
a wide range of topics, including sports, music, avant-garde poetry,
literature, scathing political commentary, and enough links to interesting
articles on equally interesting blogs to keep you interested until you run out
of time.
Go
there. Introduce yourself. Get acquainted. If you have a blog of your own,
exchange links. If you’re a victim―rather than a beneficiary―of 21st-century economics,
it’s not like you’ve got anything better to do.
