Cleanin' up the blogroll

OK, after I reported some of the big dogs that have given up the bloggin' habit, I was rememberin' last time I checked, I had several blogs on my blogroll that had not been updated in quite awhile. Let me see:

  • Slumbering Pierrot
  • Collinization
  • Rachel Lucas
  • The Bemusement Park
  • Bloggers' Congress [a good idea that just didn't take off]
  • tarek speaks crap -- and
  • Peppermint Patty
  • and there were a few on there that I seldom read and have not linked to me on their blogroll:

  • Reality Bitchslap
  • Banana Oil
  • Hot Buttered Death
  • she sells sanctuary
  • The American Undershirt
  • Gooberbug
  • Tim Blair
  • Mark A. R. Kleiman
  • IsThatLegal?
  • Asymmetrical Information -- and
  • Ken Layne
  • All blogs which I feel I need to delink at this time.

    And there are a few on the bubble, bein' blogs that I like to read often, but, for some reason, have found no reason to link back to mine:

  • Dangerously Delusional
  • The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler -- and
  • Jessica's Well
  • However, I want to say that just because I delinked a blog does not mean it was not a good blog or a worthwhile read, as some that I delinked are among some of the most popular blogs. I have previously stated that the blogs on my blogroll are the blogs I like to read, so those I am delinkin' are those which are no longer offerin' anythin' new to read or are blogs that I seldom if ever read and to which I feel no reciprocal need to stay linked.

    Now, that bein' all said and done, that frees up some space for some new blogs to find their way onto my blogroll. You want on there? Well, leave me a comment and I will check ya out. A couple of clues though: Be able to ping back to blogrolling so as to show you have updated is a key factor and not bloggin' on blog*spot is a plus. I will be lookin' for some new ones myself, but it surely won't hurt your chances to let me know you are out there.

    In gesture of wishes for Peaceful Coexistence, Politburo has authorized this comment, as possible preliminary to mutually beneficial exchange of Blogrolls.

    Fraternal Socialist Regards,

    LOL That's gotta be one of the most FORMALIZED comments I've ever seen, Tig! I'd Blogroll him just on principle, after reading that one! ;-)

    I accepted his proposal via email, but addin' links on blogrollin' is temporarily offline, accordin' to what it said when I tried to add the site.
