Is Webloglogtrying to snake m³tacubed's niche? Will I be forced to create a site that cherrypicks the best links from sites like weblognation just to stay ahead of the crowd at staying away from the content? Meta-Meta-Meta-Comedy is hard enough, I'm afraid that if I go one more level out I'll end up screwing up time-space continuum... Tacky-on.net? No? Trust me, you loved it next month.

Hey Joe, shouldn't you be talking about meta-weblog issues on MetaTalk, the meta-metafilter and meta-meta-weblog discussion area? :)

meta-shoot me before I meta-meta-meta-filter again.

To paraphrase Will Rogers, "I never met a meta I didn't like."

I actually registered loglist.com last year for the exact same purpose. Bah. I am always too slow.

I say do it. I'll just change my focus to list sites that list sites that list sites that list content. No problem.

Joe, did you buy metaweblognation.com yet?

I should admit that, the name "Meta-Filter" was originally intended for use on a metablog, in early '99, but I found so much stuff on my own, I figured I might was well do an all-original blog.

The weblog answer to Kevin Bacon:
Six Degrees of kottke.org
(I'm pretty sure sixdegreesofkottke.org is available)
