Just received this note from the folks at Blogflux, as I was adding this site to their directory (thought it was good idea at the time):
Hello hjarche,
Your blog has *not* been added to the Blog Flux Directory. Due to the amount of submissions, we cannot explain the reasons for each. Most likely it is due to one of the following:
– site is not a blog
– site contains nudity
– site is a shill site intended to simply promote products/affiliates
– site construes something illegal
In its simplist form, the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a Blog as, "Blog (noun, short for Weblog): a website that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments and often hyperlinks provided by the writer".
But I guess this isn’t a "real" blog according to the wise folks at Blogflux. Tell me it isn’t so …
Update – only a few minutes later. BlogFlux tell me that I had two entries (one for jarche.com and one for /blog/1). They only deleted one. My response was that their form letter didn’t exactly strike the right chord for me ;-) I must say that I’m impressed with the speedy response :-)
All’s well that ends well, says the Bard.
My mistakeYes Ahmed, I guess that we had a failure to communicate. Thanks again for your quick response.
Blog Flux RejectionHarold – check your email. I think there was a bit of miscommunication :)
