in Congress says no to $700B; Dow says bye to 700 points on U.S. Common Sense
I agree with you on this one. I read the headline and thought, "Oh here we go!" But no, you're sane, haha.
I'll definitely take a look around here some more and see how you feel on other issues I care about.

in Comments on blog help you to increase technorati rank ? on Online Earns
Also if you comment in do-follow blogs you increase your page rank and if that blogger has techorati it raises that too. Many blogs don't have do-follow, but mine does so if you comment on my blog, it'll raise your technorati score and give you a backlink... as long as I don't delete the comment (it would have to be a bad comment for me to delete it though.)

I made my blog do-follow to reward my commenters for saying something. I suggest you make your blog do-follow as well so people would be more likely to comment.

in How to improve your Alexa rank on Rumbling Lankan
The forums one is a good idea, but you've got to be careful not to share too much with other webmasters on these type of forums. Scams run rampant on even great forums such as digital point including ones where people try to get you banned from Google AdSense because of jealousy.

However, even if you don't get a higher Alexa ranking, you'll probably still learn a lot from these types of forums since seconds after something big on the internet happens (such as Google's two weeks of not crawling on blogspot blogs) you'll hear about it there. Also, I learned a LOT about SEO at Digital Point... if not for Digital Point I'd have never heard of SEO!

in It’s Official: The “New” Last.fm Sucks Ass on Dork Muffin
I agree! I can't find anything on that site. I am hoping that they make some even newer changes... and quick! I stopped using that site (for the moment, at least) because of that!

Haha! I hate Fox too! The garbage they've polluted the US with is one of the MANY reasons I'm moving to France.

in Quoted in The New York Times - The Power of Blogging on Instigator Blog
There is a lot of power in the blogosphere. We get a lot of hits from search results because the search engines love us and we can pretty much push ideas around. Look at Ron Paul for instance. I personally don't share his beliefs, but this shows what a few people can do.

in Laughing Squid Stickers & Patches Now Available Via Sticker Giant on Laughing Squid
I LOVE laughingsquid. I was actually stunned to see you guys on entrecard. I love your business ethics! I wish there were more companies like you guys. I had them for hosting my melbel.com but I wasn't internet savvy enough to figure out to get my own website. I love these people and when I learn more I will def come back! I LOVE the stickers, by the way. The pink ones totally rock. I don't know where I'd put them. If they were small enough, I'd stick 'em on my laptop and peel off this nasty Windows Vista sticker that they put on there thinking I wouldn't switch to something better... like Ubuntu.

in Easy Peasy Ubuntu powered Drupal Clean-URLs w/ Apache2 on Czarism
I have been trying to learn Drupal for my blog, but I have no idea where to start. Currently I am user blogger software which I am unhappy with. The thing is with Drupal, I have no idea where to even start! I know almost nothing about the subject.
