So this is how it feels to be #26

Anybody know where I can order a sports jersey with the number 26 on the back? Because according to TechCrunch, I’m one of the top tech bloggers around… Number 26 to be exact.

Now these statistics are kind of meaningless, because it’s just a breakdown of top stories that showed up on Techmeme over the past four months. And while Techmeme is a handy tool for keeping track of conversations in the tech corner of the blogosphere, the site certainly doesn’t track all blogs or news sites. But hey, it’s still nice to be recognized for my work at Download Squad.

I should point out that this is not a dubious distinction I hold all by my lonesome. Two other people also managed to get 33 posts on Techmeme so far this year, which means that Sarah Perez of ReadWriteWeb and Saul Hansel of Bits, the New York Times tech blog are also #26. It’s an exclusive club I belong to now, but it’s still a club, not a… umm… solitary thing. And of course, I don’t blog alone at Download Squad. We have an excellent team of about 20 bloggers, most of whom have day jobs and therefore can’t post as frequently as I do. If they did, I’m sure they’d outrank me on this silly little list.
