That's the banner currently up on PinoyTopBlogs for this site. It's not very artistic, but then again, this isn't an artistic blog. I can think of a dozen other taglines that can be shown on a plain black background, though, so I might end up changing it from time to time.
As of the time of this writing, this blog is number 82 in the rankings, and that little Vanity-addled part of my brain is starting to worry. I'm hoping that PinoyTopBlogs doesn't get any more sites that are more popular than this one, or otherwise I won't even be on the first page when anyone drops by. :)
On the other hand, all this makes me wonder why I'm paying so much undue attention to this sort of thing. Perhaps the act of maintaining a blog increases one's need for readers, so much that I'm starting to watch those little numbers a lot more closely. While I'm sure that it's perfectly natural, I don't want to just go out and tell people to read this blog -- that would give the impression that I'm nothing but a sorry excuse of a human being who will do anything to get you to turn in my direction.
Or maybe I just want a group of thralls who I can easily hypnotize into taking over the world for me one day. That would be really nice.
Mwahahahaha! Go forth, my pretties! Kill! Kill!
Hee hee.

Hello Sean. I think we can use Pinoy Top Blogs as a metric, check our traffic, using a third-party service.
If you have a mailing list, maybe you can add one here where people can sign up, that will be great so they'll be informed of updates. I definitely would want to sign up.
I admit that I have absolutely no idea how many people read this blog. To be really honest, I'm not even sure why I'd be worrying about my ranking despite the fact that I don't seem to care about my audience numbers. :)
I'll look into the possibility of a mailing list, though. A subscription service might even serve us better, as long as we can get a nice content management system to go along with it.
