Any blog that is general enough to be visited by that many people is likely boring. KATU!? There are exceptions of course, but blogging shouldn't be lauded for the number of readers but by the quality of the posts. It's the wrong metric. For example, Two and a Half Men continues to place in the top 20 network primetime shows. In the world of blogs, being in the top 20 means you have a terrible blog.

I believe it's based on typical AideRSS/PostRank ranking which is based on some algorithmic engagement magic. So for example, here's PDX Pipeline's current standing: http://aiderss.com/feed/8c2920d92112d88c32568466817efb62 I just tagged PDX Pipeline as Portland, among other things. We'll see how long it takes to percolate. @Julian The primary issue, it appears, is the current lack of submissions to the topic “Portland.” I believe it’s based on typical AideRSS/PostRank ranking which is based on some algorithmic engagement magic.
