Congratulations to the creating passionate users blog they have made it into the Technorati Top 100. Which is pretty amazing when you see the numbers of people linking to their blog (like me).

They are currently 84 with 6260 links from 2733 sites, holy moly that's a lot. My poor little blog only has 105 links from 8 sites and I am rank 362,427 but I have only been blogging for just over a month so it isn't to bad.

Whilst I was on the Technorati website I wondered what people with excellent taste in blogs had linked to mine (yes I really am that sad). The blog was

and he had this quote

"... often you don't see other peoples code unless there is a problem with it." -- the Hoskinator

I have to admit I thought I sounded pretty good, apart from the ultra sad Hoskinator title I have given myself, still it helps me not take myself to seriously.

The blog from Passionate users blog was about how and why they have made such a popular blog so that it made it into the top 100 at Technorati. Personally I think it's because their blog is always interesting and even if it isn't it is written in a witty amusing way (which is where I am aim at and sadly fall below). I think their blog also benefits from not always being technical it's about life as a developer, like learning, reading articles. There is a lot of technical information out there and often these blogs just contain cold hard facts and not much fun or interesting comments from author. The problem with these blogs is that there are so many about why would you become loyal to one.

One of the most important things in a blog is to put your imprint on the blog, put your opinions, thoughts, fun, so that your blog is different because you wrote it. This really comes across from their blog, it's very different from the other blogs out there and it's very original and most importantly they tackle interesting topics in a friendly interesting way so it's very enjoyable to read.

Another good feature from the Creating passionate users blog is the number of comments that their blog entries get, the
\nwhat makes a popular blog had over 100 comments to the article. Comments can add a completely new dimension to a blog entry and reading different peoples thoughts and experiences always helps me to understand the problem because you get to see all the different arguments regarding the blog.
