A Sudden Run of BlogLove

Over the past couple of days, I've been fielding inquiries about my blog, then comparing notes with other bloggers who have gotten their own requests. We've gotten offers from not one, but two aggragators. If you've heard from these folks, feel free to start a conversation in Comments. Various other backchannel dealings are going on which will break out on home blogs soon.

And finally, I got a request from Team NEO looking for blog feedback on an online poll about Northeast Ohio. It was pretty much the usual -- like it, hate it, what's good, what's bad. Then without warning, it goes all bad metaphor:





If I could have written my own automotive metaphor, I'd call NEO an old pickup with a rebuilt engine, a bed riddled with bondo deposits and an incongruous after-market chrome kit. But that's just me.

UPDATE: You can take the poll here.

Comments:
Have been hit up by two aggregators recently - one from France, which lost interest as soon as they figured out that I wasn't posting in French, and another Akron-newsy type.

Haven't answered them yet, still thinking.
 
I've been getting a ton of hits from France lately, and the referrals are all from strange sites that don't actually link to me at all. Its very strange.

I also got one for some "akrons News" site. I didn't respond because it seemed kinda sketchy and besides I don't really focus on Akron issues.

As for the poll. I'd call Cleveland a 1989 Ford Escort thats held together with duct tape and bungee cords.
