The problem in many blogging applications use the 'no-follow' attribute, which means that although indexing robots like GoogleBot will see them, it will not count them as a backlink. The best thing to do is find a couple of really good blogs that are relevant to your site/blog and backlink. The idea is fine in theory.

Now a second "wave" of z-listing has ensued, and my current blog ranking is around 11,000 on Technorati. Again,fun, but I'm still not convinced of the long-term benefit. Cheers.

And after all, what is blogging about if it's not sharing views and news. So there is a point out there, although it's sometimes hard to find. Question: if not technorati, a) why is technorati flyiong, and b) how do you find, let alone plug into the "right" blog network for you? Doubly so since the mesh is still a mess.

I actually found your blog through a search for Georgia bloggers. I am putting together a Georgia blogging carnival that will publish for the first time on January 5th. I'd love to have you participate.

Agree with you. This ranking booster is probably not going to last for Z-Listers. Nevertheless, if people actually discover new blogs (like I'm discovering yours now), there might be some positive effects remaining after the Z-List. : ) Hi Scott,
