And that's not sneaky?

For me it's unethical (unless I really have something positive to say about the entire deal) to write about something just to get a few additional hits (one-time) to my Blog.

Coming from you, Steve, this post is a bit of a shock to me. Is Blogging simply about getting to the front Page of Digg or Reddit? Wha happened to the old, Blogging-for-the-masses meme?

Or haev I grossly misinterpreted you? In that case, please accept my sincere apologies.

Regads,
