Apparently this blog has received some positive attention. Forbes Website has a feature called Best of the Web. They just did a feature about market related blogs and they chose mine as their favorite blog. Crikey.
They also gave kudos to Galatime, Inventingmoney, Maoxian, Seeking Alpha, The Kirk Report, Trader Wizard, CanSlim, and Trader Mike.
While the attention is great, what is more important is the continued growing attention being directed to market related blogs. This sort of thing helps bloggers and it will eventually be beneficial to individual investors as they learn about this fairly new outlet for information. Good stuff.

Congrats on being named Forbes Favorite! It's well deserved.
Thank you for the good word!
Roger,
Congratulations on the Forbes mention! It's no mistake - you deserve it. Blog On!

I agree, well deserved. Congrats!
It's not a mistake at all. It's an excellent weblog and an extraordinarily good advertisement for your portfolio management services. If I was a US dollar investor I'd have hired your firm like a shot. I don't know if it's a result of having a degree of geographical distance from New York City, but your market commentaries show an extraordinary degree of common sense.

dsquared,
I'll take that compliment, thank you very much.
Congratulations to you for creating a awesome site and updating it with relevant info.
Perhaps a bit of a surprise, but not a big one. You know your field, speak to the mainstream investor and as I commented earlier, the blog breathes integrity. You don't hide uncertainty in uncertain market conditions. This "subtext" is an important message.
As I mentioned earlier you need to start thinking about your role in the larger picture. The first groups have started picking up blogs for their "stables," a buzzword in net venture capital is "content."
At some point resources are going to be united. Financial opinion is a big one because many of the blog creators are professional, the readers are dedicated, in all respects it's a cream market. A big question for bloggers is to keep independance, attach better tools (eg. better organization of archives, searches acroos specified lists of sites, threaded comments) to their existing sites perhaps pulling in advertising or agreeing to work under the auspices of someone bigger.
