BlogBuzz September 2, 2007
September 2nd, 2007 by Matt- First of all, I’d like to point-out that David Airey, a graphic designer specializing in logo design, is hosting a huge blogging contest that you may want to check out. ProBlogger, Lorelle VanFossen, and several other bloggers have donated prized totaling up to $4000.
- The guy who designed ProBlogger’s new layout has recently posted about the process of redesigning the site.
- 45 Excellent Blog Designs
- 30+ Firefox Add-ons for Web Developers
- John Chow says “Who says you can’t make money off Digg users?“
- DMOZ has been a little corrupt lately. One of the editors just tried extorting $5000 from a site owner.
- Michael Martin from Pro Blog Design has written a guest post on ProBlogger: The Right Width for Your Blog.
- Have you ever wanted to use PHP inside a Wordpress page? I was digging around on the Wordpress support forum, and I found an easier way of doing it.
- Wondering where countries stand broadband-speed-wise? You’d be surprised. “United Kingdom” is placed really low because it includes more than Great Britain (which has decent broadband).
- Up for some sarcasm? How to properly steal the design of a website.
- Del.icio.us Toolbox: 180+ Del.icio.us Tools and Resources
- ProBlogger has posted the final 98 reader-submitted blog tips.
Many thanks for the mention, and amongst some superb blog company there too!
RE: “DMOZ has been a little corrupt lately. One of the editors just tried extorting $5000 from a site owner.”

Anyone following that story also knows story is linkbait. The guy has yet to accept Dmoz staff’s offer to remove the editor if such an act happened at all… as soon as he supplied proof (which he had earlier said was forthcoming).
.
Meanwhile the guy who started this self-promotional urban legend reaps the benefit of thousands of links to his site… as you just did.
.
If you blindly accept even bizarre claims (Seriously, $5000 for a Dmoz listing?! Gimme a break.) it makes one wonder about the reliability of your other information.
Oh…I missed that.
