Blogs for Companies has some sage advice for bloggers. Read the latest blog metric measuring tool with another grain of salt.

If you are a business blog, or trying to earn your living blogging, popularity and numbers matter. But I don’t believe they matter to most bloggers, over and over it’s been documented that blogging has other value to most of us. The latest blog rater called Blog Influence basically lets you know in the grand scheme of things, your blog is a raindrop in a ocean.

Bloglines (which is how a fair number of BDBO readers pop over, didn’t read, because this site asks for a Bloglines ID number. Not worth scrambling around to find it to be honest.  Besides, I’m busy cleaning up Search Engine Optimization spam.:^) 

In the interest of fair dlisclosure BDBO comes out with blog influence number of 59072.
