Apparently I'm To Be Loved (Or Scammed, Same Dif Right?)

So apparently I'm not the only one who was a bit reluctant at first (is it me or is my generation particularly cynical, or is that just everyone now?) about this but when I recieved this email from Vicky Zhou saying:

Tapeworthy To Be Included In Top 500 Blogs

...um, okay. Sure. Thanks? Really? (secretly squeal, then wonder, so what kinda scam is this anyways?). Anyways, here's what she had to say (and I figure at worst, it links to her "relationship" site...):

"Back in the day, if you didn't know HTML, or code, you couldn't publish content on the web. Well, nowadays with tools such as Wordpress, and services like Blogspot, and Xanga, anyone.. yes anyone can tell the whole world what is on their mind through blogging.

But, there really isn't a robust way to search for the best blogs on any specific topic. Sure, there's Technorati, but what else? Besides, much of the world wide web is full of splogs, spam, and made-for-adsense blogs. And how many times have you read the same exact post over and over in different blogs?

That is why a project, listing the top blogs by general categories would prove useful. The book, titled "The Top 500 Blogs" is being written by online dating blogger Vicky Zhou. From topics ranging from dating to technology, lifestyle, sports, music, health and fashion, the books aims to be a comprehensive list of the top 500 blogs on the world wide web.

The Top 500 Blogs will be out in bookstores in Q4 of 2008. Tapeworthy will be included in the category of "TV & Movies", so keep an eye out for that!"
