Recognition and Blogging...

Who hasn't wanted to get their blog and their ideas more attention? As a matter of fact, who of us hasn't wanted more praise for ourselves and our work? We humans crave recognition, a truism which seems especially true for those of us who call ourselves bloggers.

Ben at openswitch has written a very intriguing blog on this subject. Here's a quote to whet your appetite:

Real recognition is not getting linked by someone famous. It’s being famous to the point where people crave links from you. That kind of recognition can’t be manufactured, it’s earned.
