]]> What with Blogged.com’s coverage in the past day or so, as Duncan remarked, its amazing what a little PR can do for you.  Any one else amazed yet?  For the love of pete its a Blog *DIRECTORY* — of which there are literally a dime a dozen if you so wish to Google it. More incredible, there are other players who have literally been around (in their domain name, form), for more than 10 years! Allen calls it “hand-curated”, but with all due respect, I think that’s a euphism if I ever saw one.  Blog directories have their time and place, but there’s nothing about Blogged.com that ought to raise much of an eye brow, let alone two (except, maybe that domain name — that’s a great one).  Further of all, if you’re looking for some established SEO/Link pimpage, there are at least a few other directories PR7 and higher (if you still care about such things) that are accepting submissions, like BlogCatalog and EatonWeb (both of which are quite aged properties as well).
