I didn’t think anyone noticed the “Fuel My Blog” button on the right side. I put it at the top with ”Vote Often, Vote Daily!” next to it, but it’s been relatively ineffective.
Today, a couple of people have asked, “What is that? I didn’t want to click it.” Well, it’s a, uhh, well… I don’t know what it is.
But I figured with the tens of thousands of sessions we get weekly, maybe it’d go over well… I did it as an experiment to see how much people will actually click something that might look new and exciting.
Apparently, not much.
This merely proves that we have some discerning readers who come here for text more than titillation. (*cough* *cough* Sorry, I couldn’t say it with a straight face.)
Anyway … I wanna get blogitude.com up there on the “popular” list. So, uhhh … Click away!

“Ask and ye shall receive,” I guess — not only did you guys do it, but you got us up in the top third of the List. And we’re blog of the day? Sweet!
I’m interested to see how long that can go on…

We’re actually in the 13th spot, approaching twelve pretty quickly! If people keep clicking, I can see us actually making 10 before the day’s out.

You know you wanted me to push your buttons.
