  Like Technorati but just for WordPress.com blogs.

  I am convinced my blog is constantly hovering at No. 6 and this would confirm it

  Doesn’t this also cause unneeded tension and competition in a community?

  Hmm. On reflection, you’re right. I derive no pleasure at all from being ranked 641,295 on Technorati. In fact, I avert my gaze whenever the ranking is displayed.

  Since, the way WordPress.com does it right now is just show the blogs/posts that are getting the most hits. It also shows the latest posts. I also despise my ranking of -6343542633526 on Technorati! :P

  I think this system is fair in it doesn’t show if people hate your blog. Just shows what the popular things are.
