The Blog Rolls


What’s the deal with my blog rolls? Read on:


Blog rolls
Top Roll:

This is my main roll. On any given day I may read only sites from here. And I’m more likely to read something that has been recently updated (currently set for a 6 hour window) so do ping weblogs.com.
Presented in order of most recently updated.
This roll is maintained on blogrolling.com and is generated using PHP code and should be visible to visiting robots.

Center Roll:

Two sets of sites currently live in this roll:

1) those moving upward from the Base Roll or downward from the Top Roll
2) reciprocals.

Presented in order of most recently updated.
This roll is maintained on blogrolling.com and is generated using PHP code and should be visible to visiting robots.

Base Roll:

I use this to track sites that look interesting and that I might want to include on my permanent rolls.
I don’t review these sites near as often as the Center or Top rolls but when I do I perform a triage: a) nah, not really interesting so delete, b) neutral, no change, c) yea, I’m still liking what I see so make another entry for them.
This is a large roll and currently I have 77 random sites shown when Modulator’s main page is opened. Sort is random.
This roll is maintained on blogrolling.com and is currently generated using Javascript code. Robots may not read these sites.

Journals and Media:

Just as it says…a selection of electronic journals and other web based media. Just as in the other rolls there are items from multiple colors of the political spectrum. Maintained on blogrolling.com.

Top Referrers Roll:

Just what it says It does not include service sites like Movable Type, Technorati, blo.gs, etc., though I will mention them in my monthly announcement regarding top referrers.
Presented in random order.
This roll is maintained on blogrolling.com and is generated using PHP code and should be visible to visiting robots.
