Out with the old

Broom and dustpanA brief housekeeping note: I’m cleaning out the blogroll, and it’s time to purge those who have broken faith.

So:

And I’m putting these CBC bloggers on notice:

Publish or perish, friends!

A few other updates: Tod Maffin’s link moves from his disused personal blog to his tech column; I’ve added Joe Clark’s Fawny and Peter Janes’ Petroglyphs.

As a rule, I only link to lesser-known, non-commercial blogs that are regularly updated, and that I regularly read. While I often read them, I don’t think I need to link to smart guys like Neil Gaiman and Douglas Rushkoff and Clive Thompson and Cory Doctorow. Nor do I bother blogrolling the ubiquitous Boing Boing, or sites I read for fun, like Daily Snopes or Eric Karabell’s wonderful fantasy sports blog.

No shortage of stuff to read. Still, if you’ve got a blog I should be reading, or a link I’d enjoy, please let me know about it!

  1. I did some housecleaning of my own last month… got rid of the non-updaters, the welchers on reciprocation of links and a few dubious blogs.

  3. Oh thank God… thank God I’m still there! I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t made “The Gorbould Cut!” :-)

  5. […] It bears mentioning that some have contributed directly to my modest traffic by blogrolling me. First among these must be Paul Gorbould over at Gor[b]. Paul is a professional, and he writes like one. His topics and the delivery of them are made instantly legitimate; his pedigree as a real journalist is evident from the author and his work and it annoys me to no end. For what it’s worth, whatever pain or pleasure you get from my blog should be laid partially at his feet, since he publically excreted on me for letting this blog lapse. […]
