Blogrolling

To the People earned a very cool mention at Reason's Hit & Run blog today. Editor-in-chief Nick Gillespie called us "a lively, funny, at-times-groan-inducing, potpurri." Groan-inducing? I was sure we were nausea-inducing, or at least gag-inducing.

According to one Washington Post writer, this sort of blogrolling is an odious net trait -- a mutual-admiration society, rather than the whole networked system of websites that anyone with a brain knows to be the basis of the Internet. I'm sure Post books-section editor Jennifer Howard is absolutely right -- she's stuffy and learned -- except of course when she's pointing readers to the New York Times Review of Books, IMDB, book-fan sites, a whole host of authors she likes, and the like.
