Yup, thanks, I know…I tried it a long time back myself and had it up on the blog. But you would expect the value to keep changing, wouldn’t you…considering the fluctuations in visitor-traffic, post-output etc? This one doesn’t change…even if you try it a few months later, it’ll show exactly the same value. So, I got rid of it.

Inspired by Tristan Louis’s research into the value of each link to Weblogs Inc, Dane Carlson of Business Opportunities has created this little applet using Technorati’s API which computes and displays a blog’s worth using the same link to dollar ratio as the AOL-Weblogs Inc deal.

[...] Ever since I found a calculator that told me how much my blog was worth, I have found myself having comment-conversations about fantasy gadgets (here and here). As memes have suddenly become very popular in the blogosphere, I’ll try my hand at one and ask Kingsley, Ideasmithy, Chandrachoodan, Sashi and Santosh to list a fantasy gadget each. Here are two of mine: [...]
