I don’t actually play Blogshares like some people do, but I check out how my blogs are doing from time to time and check how some other blogs I read are doing. I admit, I don’t totally understand the blog stock market. I checked on Candy Addict on Blogshares the other day and its valuation had past 100,000 B$! Cool. Also, outgoing links from Candy Addict are now worth 25K B$ (that’s the maximum) it’s the same as an outgoing link from BoingBoing! Again, not sure what it all means but I thought it was cool.

UPDATE: The stock value has come crashing down and it’s only worth just under 40K now, though the stock price (B$8,276.74) and outgoing link value (B$19,597.80) is still pretty high.

Another million dollar home page knockoff, but this one uses planets and pays obvious homage to Douglas Adams and The Hitchhiker’s Guide. Check out my small green planet in the upper left.

Recently, a link to my Candy Addict site was posted on BoingBoing and on BluesNews within about 12 hours of each other. Surprisingly (to me anyway), BluesNews has sent more traffic than BoingBoing. This could partially be because I have had links form BoingBoing before so some people did not click because they already had seen Candy Addict. Here are the stats as of 3/7/2006:
BoingBoing: 472
BluesNews: 681
