Thanks, Will, for sending these.

Bloggers: See something you don't like on this list? We just received a full stock of miniature violins. Please contact us for details.

update: apparently most of these sites are not blogs and no one cares about anything and stats are for losers and some people will get mad that someone is above someone else on this list so we shouldn't have posted it but it doesn't matter because "no one will see it anyway." Oh, and blogs are "so over." FYI.
