Huh?
On someone's radar.
[take a gander at where that arrow is pointing]
Now if only I could get a piece in the Times Magazine 'Lives' segment.

I clicked on the image but it didn't "embiggen" for me. What does it say?

Blogrunner is an aggregator - like memeorandum - run by the NY Times. It finds blog posts and sorts them by topic or news story. It's a good sign. Once it finds you, I think the chance of it finding you in the future goes up significantly.
How you get blogrunner's attention. I have no idea.

Whoa, David. The NYT is the big time!

Congrats, bro! Why haven't you submitted some of these posts to the Times for consideration????

Cool!

I don't think you should read much into this, David. They picked up a post of mine a few months ago, me with my three and a half strong readership. And it wasn't even a particularly interesting or good post either, in my opinion.
It brought me surprisingly few hits. How are you doing?

Sorry to be a killjoy.

My post was listed on the WSJ because of an article on a similar topic to a blog post. I got exactly one hit.

And how exactly did you put that arrow in, anyway ?

I'm glad to see that people are finally accepting the fact that embiggen is a perfectly cromulent word.
Posted by: Mike Miller | Sep 19, 2008 11:09:03 AM
embiggen does not appear in the Scrabble dictionary of permitted words.
How do I go to the NYT page?

Amazing. And doubly amazing that I can't get such a link when I'm one of the top results for "Tina Fey Jewish."
Posted by: Esther | Sep 19, 2008 8:53:07 PM
It's neat when that happens!
Congrats!

The NY Times? Buck up -- in a few years no one will remember this little setback.

And look what I found in a book review today, Sunday, in the NYT:- "what Diderot may have been the first to call l’esprit d’escalier, all the fine rejoinders that occur to one only when one is descending the stairs and it’s just too late."
And there but for French goes Treppenwitz!

It's the newspapers' new c&p - aggregating blog content, rather than having their editors and interns sit and c&p newslines together from the ticker... so, despite the fun, it's less about "paying recognition" than more, well, trying to be economic.
But it's cool nevertheless.
