<p>Should I be excited or depressed?</p>
<p>I noticed a new incoming link to my blog this week which comes from the <a href="http://halfdone.wordpress.com/2010/01/30/january-halfdone-nz-blog-stats/">Halfdone NZ Blog Stats</a>.</p>
<p>This site is listed there as the 389th most popular blog in NZ. Which equates to the 12th most popular education blog.</p>
<p>I hear you ask, what about widely read blogs such as <a href="http://blog.core-ed.net/derek/">Derek&#8217;s Blog</a> and others? Well to qualify for these stats, amongst other things,  your blog needs to be listed in <a href="http://www.alexa.com/">Alexa</a> or <a href="http://technorati.com/">Technorati</a> and you can&#8217;t be paid to complete it. Not sure if it is part of Derek&#8217;s JD or not&#8230;</p>
<p>More info on how these ratings are compiled are <a href="http://halfdone.wordpress.com/2009/08/01/july-halfdone-nz-blog-stats/">here</a> and if you think your blog should be, let the post author know, politely.</p>
<p>Here are your top educational blogs, including three that have not been updated in a while but still must be pretty popular.</p>
