And thanks to James of OTB for testing my hypotheses from yesterday. He proved that getting a link from at least a medium-sized blog gets one noticed, even if it is by saying "This guy's blog is boring" :)

And BTW, I now have 63 details on the TTLB Ecocsystem and am now a "Maurading Marsupial"--thanks for the links (and keep 'em coming!)
