in Is StumbleUpon better than Google? on Mathew's comments
I think another interesting issue is the recent downgrading of PR based on whether a site sells links or not. I think that makes it unreliable at best. Stumble upon gets us around that. Maybe we need a metric that combines the two...
Jason: Last time I checked, Mahalo was a social search site. Seems to me that the 3.7 million users of stumbleupon would be your core group of users. And, frankly, you can throw out the bottom 50% of users as they're going to use whatever search engine is convenient. e.g. Google.
Mathew: we may not be the average web user, but those like us usually make or break many of these companies.

in Techmeme eats Technorati’s lunch on Mathew's comments
I don't think that a techmeme top 100 would even come close to comparison with the technorati list. First, the techmeme list is naturally limited by the group of people who appear on it. If my site gets 3000 links, but none from the ones that appear on techmeme, I don't show up.
Technorati's list, while not all-inclusive (statistically impossible), at least tries to include every blog that gets a link. That list is only limited by those that either don't know about technorati, or choose to not sign up.
The way I see it, a techmeme top 100 is alot like having a "best scores" board at a private country club.

in What Would You Do With $200? on Vlad Zabblotskyy - A politically Incorrect Blogger
I agree. I like the drawing idea. (mostly because my comments are nowhere near the 25,50,75, 0r 100 spots...)

So, whomever gets the 100th comment on this post? If that's what we're going for, it'll be a while. This should make 13. lucky 13.

I'd use it to further my online ventures with some linkbuilding campaigns. That way it's more of an investment than a expense... Gotta use your money smart!
