Sometimes my laziness is so high that I'll just have a link to a blog that I know has a link to a bunch of other blogs I read rather than adding those blogs directly, though I've stopped doing that as much.DBBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805375811782552873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28755195.post-22058281434429088632008-09-21T01:27:00.000-06:002008-09-21T01:27:00.000-06:00Blogrolls should serve two purposes: to recommend ...Blogrolls should serve two purposes: to recommend to your readers the blogs and sites you are reading, and to give yourself quick access to the blogs and sites you like to visit. <BR/><BR/>If you are finding that your blogroll is serving neither purpose very well, then you should probably cut it down or get rid of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28755195.post-64748911169243619662008-09-20T06:42:00.000-06:002008-09-20T06:42:00.000-06:00I've removed the cost of war counter.

So i guess it's scripts and stuff, it is a microsoft pop up also, just hijacks me whole screen, tells like this, "Uses ure computer to calculate the cost of war which hasn't begun yet. cost of war.com."<BR/>So annoying!<BR/>JazAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28755195.post-70590824312068498772008-09-19T12:04:00.000-06:002008-09-19T12:04:00.000-06:00I think your blog roll is too long to be effective...I think your blog roll is too long to be effective.
