One, for now on, I am going to do my best to forget about popularity. It is an intoxicating brew. Even a little recognition seems to make one drunk with self-importance. Popularity is out the window. Truth is in, popularity is out.
Two, to back this up even further, I am strongly considering taking the donation button down. Also, any advertising that may still exist on the front page. This blog hasn't been profitable, but now, I will turn this to an advantage by not seeking a profit at all. It may not be much of an advantage, but it does improve my credibility.
I sincerely think we have a problem in this society. Too much me, me, me. At the very least, I will try to avoid adding to the problem. Less of me, me, me might led something that's good for we, we, we. That's a solution that's worth getting behind, but I wouldn't hold my breath in this culture as it stands today.
Update: ( 3/21/14)
As a mentioned, popularity can be quite seductive. I'm still watching those numbers. Although it may seem to be a contradiction, I will keep the "Best of" categories, and I will update them. Hopefully, I won't obsess over them.
