Chuck Westbrook (Do you think he’s American?) has a great idea for getting good blogs noticed by people who want to notice them. It’s kind of like one of those pyramid selling schemes Lynne Faulds-Wood told us all to be careful of in the 80s, but it’s for blogs and it doesn’t want you to end up bankrupt.

Basically, check out Chuck’s idea over at his blog, where everyone will loyally read a neglected blog for two weeks. After the two weeks are up, another blog gets the spotlight. Nice idea, now fingers crossed they’re not all rubbish…

Noticed by the ever on-the-ball Kyle Steed, image from Demotivators.

Found this great visual trace tool on Uneasysilence. It lets you see how the data which makes up your website actually gets to the viewer, through various servers and gateways. It uses Google Maps to show you, so you can zoom around and look at it as a map or a satellite image as usual.
