		<description>Hello,
Would you mind adding me to the list? My blog is My Word at http://mwyn.org/mw. I would really apperciate it. Also, I got you e-mail and comments and everything was changed correctly. 
Question though, I'm not sure but I don't think you have sent me a link like I did for you. I believe thats the deal, a link for a link. I'm not angry it's just I'm giving you a link and am subscribing to your feed and just want to make sure you are doing the same for me.</description>

		<description>Hi Bob,

The train, you mean? Or the plugin? In either case, I wouldn't really know how to gauge it, I'm sorry to say. Even though my Alexa ranking has improved on a weekly basis (sometimes twice a week) I honestly couldn't tell you which method has influenced that, if at all.

Up until recently, I used the widget on my blogs as a way to tell visitors how the blog is doing. But I've decided to remove that in favor of a faster download and instead using the plugin to tell me the information I needed.

My guess is, however, that the train is only as good as the persons who remember to click on the redirecting links. Just like the feed trains, people may post them, but forget to actually subscribe to what they've posted. I wish there was a way to actually track that.  :smile:</description>

		<description>I'll head over to Dosh's and see if I can find it. I love reading the articles there :)

I'll check out that plugin as well. I've already got a billion plugins with firefox. What's one more?  :mrgreen:</description>

		<description>Hey buddy, well, I'm not sure. While my Alexa ranking has improved, I don't know how to tell what the cause of it is. Could be the redirect trains like this, or it may be that I'm using the Alexa plugin for Firefox. I read over at DoshDosh that installing the plugin may help in some way. (don't recall the details just now).

If you'd like me to send you that article from DoshDosh, let me know and I'll take care of it tonight when I'm home. :)</description>

		<description>Hey Mark! A few people have included me in their lists with this, so I guess it's about time I get in gear and give it a try on my sites ;P

Have you seen any kind of noticeable difference yet with your ranking?</description>
