		<description>I've linked to Google's criteria in many posts.  It is vague.  You are correct that high ranking inbound links are a criteria.  My post is about how other criteria like paid links can set your blog to ZERO.  Did you read it carefully?  Just wondering.  Have Nice Day.</description>

		<description>Thanks Jessica.  I teach kids right now who will probably most see their house payments made through the internet ie; blogging and websites.  Google is attempting to control who will and who won't.  It's sense mixed with nonsense but because it's Google, unknowing consumers swallow the hook.

I know in time it has to change, but I'm not going to sit quietly and let visitors think Google has correctly defined my blog as having zero worth.  The technorati thing is similar only it's not as fiscally important what your Techno score is  Some people just like it for reassurance.  My system works to make me feel confident.  others should try something similar if they feel that same lack thereof.  Don't you think?</description>

		<description>Well, you know how much I adore the evil Technorati :) I dont get why the links only count for 6 months and then they fall off. It's ridiculous!

I can see whee this is a huge issue, though, if you're trying to make some money blogging. I checked out one site when I had a good technorati score, but I couldn't qualify for nearly any jobs because of another score which was low.  I like the CAN system way better!!!!
Nice job on the google font, too!!!!
