For the past few months, I have been a part of the private beta of TheGoodBlogs. Today they opened the public beta.
TheGoodBlogs is a blog link aggregator that displays links to other topical blog posts via an easy to use and highly configurable widget. You may have noticed the widget in the right hand column at Newsome.Org.
One of the benefits of TheGoodBlogs is exposure. Your blog posts get rotated through the widgets on other blogs. This results in new traffic and new readers.
But the benefit I enjoy the most is the ability to spot and click to other people’s blog posts via the widget on my blog. I first noticed a number of the blogs I currently subscribe to via TheGoodBlogs widget.
Vernon and Tony have a really good thing going, and I recommend TheGoodBlogs to any blogger looking to find and be found.
Kate Trgovac (a regular read I found via TheGoodBlogs) has a good write-up on TheGoodBlogs. Mathew Ingram, Mark Evans, Laurence Timms (creator of Chuquet) and Ian Delaney are other blogging pals of mine who have been a part of TheGoodBlogs beta.
