Made you look!  I finally broke below a million on Alexa (886,712).  Special thanks to Aloysa and retireby40, my top two commenters.  Things are slowing down a bit as the air is now thinner.  Hitting resistance as all the weak hands have been shaken out.  Need to work harder and keep the momentum going.  Will push forward on my pursuit to 200,000.  For all you closet Trekkies out there, RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!!!  Come on, who doesn't love Star Trek?  It really has been quite a ride so far.  Met so many talented and supportive people.  I've learned so much.  Thanks to all Yakezie members for putting up with all my questions.  You guys totally rock!  Let's keep this party train going!  There's no stopping us!!! 

Congratulation! Great job! Yakezie is the greatest! We're definitely like the Borgs.

I just copied Kevin Thousandaire and added the Top Commentors gravitar toolbar, it's pretty cool. Both of you guys are on there, take a look.

Thank you for all your help along the way!

You are very welcome! You are doing great. It does slow down when you drop below 1 mil mark. But keep up a good job and you will hit 200K really soon. Congrats on the drop!

Never seen it?  Like retireby40 mentioned, Borg is an enemy that spreads like a virus.  Their line is "Resistance is futile."  Since they're bad guys, maybe we're like the Anti-Borg because we're spreading like a virus, but we only want to do good.

Congrats man!  It will be fun to measure our success as we're around the same point you are!

Congrats Buck Inspire! I know I'm a little slow with the congrats, but hopefully it still means something! I just broke a million as well and hope to continue to drop toward that 200,000 mark. I'm sure we'll both get there! :)

Thanks Derek.  Absolutely it means something.  I'm sure everyone is working hard on their own blogs.  Appreciate it.  Congrats to you, too on breaking a million.  Good luck on your push to 200,000!

resistence is futile – I thought this was from Dr Who. Or am I thinking 'exterminate, exterminate'?

Either way, well done.

OK, I just visited.  It looks like you are off to a great start.  I am going to make a few suggestions.  They may be way off though.

1.  I read an article that said the black background can be very difficult for some people to read.  I didn't have trouble with it, but i think I can read a white background better.

2.  You  might want to consider signing up for Twitter and Facebook.  (You can use Networked Blogs to send your blog to your profile page when it gets published automatically too.)

3.  Take advantage of being 'Socail'.  Consider the Digg Digg plug-in or some other social bookmarking site.  (I use Digg Digg and Sociable)

4.  Comment around as much as you can.  I see you respond to the people that comment, which is great. 

5.  Consider providing a place where readers can sign up for email updates of your blog.  I just use feedburner, but I know many swear by Aweber.

Great job!
