September in weblog land

Meanwhile Burning Bird is grousing. She thinks this is just like when AOL opened Usenet to all their users.

Hath we wrought another September that never ended? Well, Burning Bird's post seems more revelatory than accusatory, so I wouldn't make as much of it as Dave does.

As something to think about, it's interesting that LiveJournal isn't at fault for such a thing. Why? Well, given that Burning Bird's initial comment was about them flooding weblogs.com, that's because LiveJournal's don't ping weblogs.com automatically.

But who do you think was getting all those personality tests in Daypop's top forty, eh? Riddle me that, Batman.
