blogshares

I've added a few side-bar links just for fun. One is who links here which is described to be

Who Links To Me – for the ultimate narcissist within you

and if you click it you get some of the pages linking to this weblog. Not that it is so important but it is pleasant to see that some real people (as opposed to spiders) look at this page and at times this is needed just to carry on blogging.

Another link I like is blogshares. On its homepage its purpose is described as

BlogShares is a fantasy stock market for weblogs. Players get to invest a fictional $500, and blogs are valued by inbound links.

Much to my surprise my blog is valued to be worth $3,793.32. I'll be happy to cash this in and start a brand new blog anytime! Unfortunately, so far nobody seems to have bought a share of @matrix, so please do, I think it's a good investment if you look at the current growth rate. A more sobering figure is that my present market share is a mere 0.000195188 %…

(added febr 2007) : clearly i’ve given up on such things (though I’m presently worth 5 times more)
