   Best place I've ever visited. Having a small niche blog (horse racing) I never dreamed that I'd actually get visitors who were genuinely interested in my obsession. It's a place that has taught me the value of getting to know the blogger and not just the blog.
   
   My quote would be: "blog is for fun"

   Heres mine.
   
   I was a virgin before I joined Blogcatalog and would hang about outside old peoples homes hoping to get a small glimpse of that sweet sweet granny flesh. But since joining Blogcatalog I've had pussy coming out my ears!! I'd definitely recommend it.

   BlogCatalog has ruined my personal life, kept me up countless nights, and has prevented me from cleaning my apartment for the last 6 months!!

      BC is very addicting, there should be a BC rehab.

   For a blogger who may not be 100% tech savyy, I've really appreciated having the kind assistance from my fellow BC-ers when I've had specific tech questions. Plus, where else can you hang out with smart, weird and funny folks from all over the globe and talk about blogging? Or talk about not-blogging. Or baking soda. Or...

   Ah Blogcatolog - that incessantly and horrendously addictive place for bloggers and smart-asses, and of course the ever present know-it-all just to spice things up. A fantastic virtual watering hole for horses, barbies, ninjas, babies that read and type all too well, animals that always look surprised, slightly abusive and way too cocky cartoon characters and so forth.
   
   I say come on in, it's like the Hotel California. Heh

    I'm a newb to BlogCatalog, just came in a couple days ago, while fooling around spreading my public blog around to feeder sites like BlogCatalog that like to suck up blogs. I must say, Blogcatalog delivers the most action for the buck (FREE IS PRETTY GOOD!). I suspect if I spend some time around here I'll figure out how to find more blog-buds whose interests align with mine. My comment: I see a resurgence of the old 90's "$MAKE $MONEY ON YOUR $WEBSITE!!!! crap" everywhere; only now it's "$MAKE $MONEY ON YOUR $BLOG!!!!" A blog is just a website with some content management built in. Simple math plus a little common sense about the overall money supply assures that only a few people will get rich from their blog and I am probably not one of them and most probably, neither are you.
    
    I'd love a copy of the e book when you are done with it.

    BlogCatalog is all about community - yes, you can easily find relevant blogs through the social network's index but the best benefit stems from the authenticity, camaraderie and dynamics of the overall BC community.
    
    The BC threads alone are addictive enough. One can immediately connect with others and build genuine friendships. I will not be surprised when I hear about two bloggers meeting from BC and getting married!

    Not really a blogger here, but would love to be one someday. I have been visiting BC for the last 6 months or so, and think that BC is an amazing place to relax/take part in discussions/meet other like minded/friendly people from all over the world. On the whole BC has been one amazing portal.

    I will cheat and copy what I wrote in the comments of that tech crunch article a while back.
    
    As just an everyday kind of simple blogger, I added my blog to BC willy nilly, along with quite a few other sites, then I forgot about it for a long time.
    
    I am not clear what drew me back, I think it was the addition of the discussion boards, where a technology challenged person like myself got some help.
    
    Ever since then I have been hooked and I am continually impressed by the new features they have added.
    I think a big plus point is that all types of blogs and bloggers are found here, anything from mommy bloggers, politics, humour to cooking etc.

    Hi,
    
    I am so glad that I found blogcatatlog. Without it I don't think that I would have been put onto the fast track of web traffic and it's resources. Everyday that I log into BlogCatalog I make new friends and find more ways to stretch my creativity.

    BC, so far, is the most effective blog directory and community out on the Net, if not the best.
    
    Great feel on the community side (not just another dull forum). Great involvement of the members.

    I'm fairly neutral about it, personally. I get at least 10x the hits on my blog through a very small amount of self-promotion on my part than I get through BC (which has worked out, so far, to less than one a day, roughly.) As far as a static list of blogs go, it's okay.

    Words can not express!
    
    The BC has been like a constant drug for me ever since I signed up.
    
    I'm so serious, it's not even funny.
    
    Before BC, I always laughed at people with addictions.
    
    Now I have one! LOL!!!
    
    I have to laugh or I'm goin to cry.
    
    How pathetic is that?
    
    Seriously - the best blog directory on the web!
    
    Amazing features, easy to use, stream-lined (smooth as a baby's bottom), etc!
    
    Love this place!
    
    
    PS Anyone know a BC Addiction group I can go to?
