I’ve seen “The TTLB Blogosphere Ecosystem Rankings By Links” in other blogs, and so I figured I’d see how THE MEDIAN SIB fared. I entered my site information and found that I am an “Insignificant Microbe.” Here are the rankings, from highest number of links to the lowest. You can see where my microbic little blog landed in the hierarchy:
Out of the blogs in the system, mine is ranked #41,860. I think this is part of the reason WHY people blog - competition. Already I’m feeling the stirrings of “I’ve got to get THE MEDIAN SIB further up that list!” I must talk myself down from such silliness. After all, why do I have a blog? Is my purpose to get other bloggers to link to my blog, or am I doing this to have a good time and to write? The answer is . . . well, now that I’ve been labelled an insignificant microbe, I want to rise . . . rise to . . . maybe to the level of Flippery Fish. “Flippery Fish” reminds me of the Maurice Sendak book, Chicken Soup With Rice (note: Other teachers may understand the connection - or maybe it’s too obscure for anyone but me.) For now, this insignificant microbe is headed out to go camping.

Just saw that! Yea! I think the “Insignificant Microorganism” was before they did the scan to classify it. Who knows!

I felt so out of touch for the last ten days not being able to read The Median Sib every day. I am trying to catch up. So, maybe my catching up will help boost you up a level, you insignificant microbe. (BTW, what is below that? I guess that is where mine is!)

Hey your a Flippery Fish NOW!!! Congrats! Maybe the ranking has something to do with signing up? You think??
