It was on purpose, so folk Googling’d have something to find, if they could find the right terms… *glares at dennis*

Dan, try a google search for “b5 blogging network” (without the quotes)…

Dan, you might be a small % or you might not be, there really isn’t any way for us to tell at this point. Since we aren’t ready to really “launch” this yet, the best I can do at this point is apologize and hope that you can hold your nose for a few days while we try and get things into a semblance of order.

I could just be in the minority here, but I’m interested in reading, but could care less about the searching. I’m of the opinion that I shouldn’t have to work to find content that you want to popularize.

No, I think I’m *firmly* in the minority here. There was that Halo “iLoveBees” thing where you had to uncover clues about a story that culminated in the Halo 2 launch. That was *wildly* popular and I never got into it.

Feel free to ignore me here. I’m that small % of the market that won’t be happy no mater what you do. =)

Honestly? Because I got a lot of emails from people who enjoyed sniffing around. In the next week (ish) the entire thing will launch and everyone will get to see what’s going on. But, we’ve left clues all through Technorati, IceRocket and Google that should allow people to find all the blogs if they’re into peeking under the hood.

Sorry that this is insulting or frustrating, I was just trying to let people who nejoy this kind of thing have a bit of fun.

How is this good advertising? I’m interested in reading these blogs, but flaunting the fact that they’re hidden and “nyah nyah you can’t read them” ranges from frustrating to insulting, depending on the mood.

Maybe I just don’t understand your strategy here.
