I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

Blogcritics getting big time It's a measure of big progress in a short time to say that I'm a little disappointed that Blogcritics got just over 1,920,000 page views in August 2005. I was hoping to hit 2 million.
According to Site Meter, in most of three years, we've gotten just north of 15 million page views- which ain't half bad. But over 10% of that was just in this last month.
The really cool thing about this is that it was not at all caused by some temporary one time bump (like our Janet Jackson spike last year), a Drudge link or some such. Apparently this all comes from Google. I'm no expert on this stuff, but apparently our "Google Page Rank" went from a 6 to a 7 a month and a half ago when they did quarterly re-calculations, giving us more throw weight in their search engine. Now our huge article archives come up higher in all kinds of searches. This pretty much instantly more than doubled our traffic. We're routinely over 60K page views daily during what is usually the summer doldrums.
