What, this is a science blog? I thought it was a compendium of Linux tips and obscure recipes. My entire worldview now stands in tatters.

I know, it's weird, isn't it?

I have decided to rename my blog to WhatAmIChoppedLiver?

Phil, you are 166 out of several zillion. That ain't chopped liver!

Cool - I also like Chopped Liver Bad Astronomy Blogs

This calls for a recipe using chopped liver. Greg?

Hi Greg, this is Miles from Wikio.com!

Congrats on your Top 10 ranking; you may want to add a badge to your site!

All best,
Miles

And Dispatches at number 5? Ed covers church and state legal issues more than he does science.

Badge? Where do I get a badge?

Hi again, Greg!

If you're interested, here's the HTML for your badge. It is self-updating with your monthly-changing ranking:

And Rich, not to be at all contentious, but the Dispatches blog at #5 bills itself as "thoughts from the interface of science, religion, law and culture." Like many blogs in the blogosphere, Ed's blog touches on a few different subjects. It's admittedly one of the challenges here at Wikio...

Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.

Way to go, Greg! Congratulations on making it into the top 10.

'scuse me, Greg - hoping to get Wikio's attention:

Miles! Hi! I write another science blog called Terra Sigillata - your organization has it listed under 'General' and I have contacted Wikio several times to let you know that, in fact, I write about science. I'll be happy to display your badge if you would do me the favor of categorizing me appropriately - under 'Science.'

Thank you, Greg.

We return this comment thread to its regularly scheduled programming.
