I appreciate their communication skills -- that's big in my book. It'll be interesting to see what changes they'll be making. But true, I didn't get a bit of traffic from them.

Too much bad press about it for me. And I get like NO traffic or comments from it. I’ve gotten rid of it too. Too much bad press about it for me. And I get like NO traffic or comments from it.

Man you have a ton of creativity! Anyway, its been awhile since I lasted checked. But at the time I last checked, I was getting quite a bit of traffic. I personally don't like how the widget looks on my blog and I may very well consider removing it too... not because of traffic though. I haven't unveiled this on my blog just yet but my good friend Thor is creating a very nice widget that could easily provide an alternative to BlogRush. Also one of the key elements to his widget is that it is machine readable. :) I'll be covering more about this on my blog as I continue to discover more about it. In the mean time, check out Thor's post <a href="http://www.thorschrock.com/2007/09/24/rss-cross-promotion-widget-can-boost-your-traffic-free/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. If you end up downloading or commenting, tell Thor that Garry sent you! :) :shock:

But I'd rather place more useful things in my sidebar for now. Thanks for commenting! @Builders: who knows, maybe it’ll turn around and be the “in” thing to do.
