Blogroll Amnesty Day

Photobucket

Jon Swift and Skippy are reminding us that this weekend is the time for the annual Blogroll Amnesty Day.

The rule is to highlight, link to, and add to one's blogroll, some deserving blogs that have smaller traffic than you. Now, it's sometimes not easy figuring out who has what traffic - if you really like a blog you probably think the traffic there is higher than it is.

Also, I have real trouble picking just a few. Go and check my Blogroll - it's huge! And only a few of them are Big Dawgs. Most are rather smallish blogs. Check them out, at least some of them.

I have been really busy lately so I have not updated my blogroll in a long time. I intend to add all the blogs I mentioned over the last few months in my Blogrolling For Today posts, so check those out as well.

But before I go ahead and turn my monstrously big Blogroll into something even bigger, please let me know, in the comments, who is still missing from it yet deserves to be there? Is it your blog? Give me the URL.

The powers that be have declared this the third annual Blogroll Amnesty Day. According to those powers, we are supposed to be celebrate by linking to five lesser-known bloggers, and reiterating our liberal blogroll policy. First the blogs you should be reading...hard choices here, but I'm going to…

I should point out, for this occasion, that you walk the talk. You blogrolled me very, very early on and linked to me often, even when my traffic was in the few dozen per day. You're a great ambassador for the blogosphere and I'm honored to call you my friend.

I second Abel Pharmboy, Bora! You provided me with encouragement when I was just starting out and really needed it most. I'm deeply appreciative for that.
