Clean Up Time

Our issue with blogs not moving to the top of the list seemed to have occurred when we reached the 200 blog mark, which has prompted me to try and clean the place up to see if that helps. Not sure if it will or not yet but, I figure it's worth a try and it needs to be done anyway.

This is always a tough thing for me to do because removing blogs is not what this is all about, but blogs that aren't updated isn't what it's about either. I usually go back about 6 months however, this time, I only removed blogs that haven't been updated beyond February of this year. I've also removed any broken links, of course. In addition, any blogs that are only open to invited readers have been removed as well. This is a public list after all and if the owners of these blogs do not wish their blogs to be public, why publicize them right?

Anyhoo, here's what's been removed. As always, if you are the owner of these blogs and are updating again, please email me and I'll add them back right away!

Phew. That's done and we're now left with 154 blogs. Lets see if the updates work. If not, at least our list has been cleaned; something I've been wanting to do for a while. It'll be January when I do it again so if you haven't posted in a while, be sure to do so.

Have a great day!

Another Update

First of all folks, I just wanted to let you know that a lot of people are noticing that the blogs aren't updating as new when new posts and made or when you ping your site. There seems to be an issue with the system, but I'm sure it'll be resolved soon. I guess we just have to be patient.

Other than that, here are today's new additions to the list.
