I thought they might not post a static list, since you can get it live, but they did, and it’s here. There are also a couple of notes on developing the library:
- Need for better hosting
- Possible peer reviewed bibliblog

I note quite a debate around the blogs I read regarding just what is a biblioblog. For a long time, this blog was listed as a “related” blog, then a few months ago was “upgraded” to a biblioblog, and I’ve been in the top 50 ever since, and even made the top 10 a time or two. I’m not going to join the debate. As long as I’m so classified, I will participate in the community by displaying the badge and linking to the biblioblog library. If the classification changes, I’ll still be linking to lots of biblioblogs (however defined), because I subscribe to a number in my reader, and read quite a few more via links from those.
As far as topics are concerned, I find that many times when I think I have written something significant, nobody notices. At other times, when I think I’ve batted out a few throwaway lines, I get a bunch of links. I’m not sure whether my “significance meter” is on the blink or if my readers are, on average, a bit weird. It could be both.
My most popular post at the moment is one that relates to the Bible, though it isn’t very academic: Ephesians 6:18 – Always Pray in the Spirit. That struck me this morning because yesterday I wrote a post titled A Sense of the Spiritual, in which I noted that it can be hard to really feel a Bible story as the original hearers might have without also having (or at least truly understanding, I suppose) a strong sense of the nearness of the spiritual realm as they did.
So much for reflections …
The carnival is up at You Can’t Mean That, and the Biblioblogger rankings, from which I have fallen in disgrace due to lack of blogging (I would guess-no blogging=no traffic!) are up at Free Old Testament Audio.
… at Free Old Testament Audio. And I have now dropped to #30. Freefall!
Oh joy! Oh rapture! Oh Bliss! I have recovered from last month’s #50 to #28 in the biblioblog rankings, and all that with relatively little blogging!
… and I got bumped to #16, which is not surprising given how little blogging I’ve been doing lately. Come to think of it, the really surprising thing was how long I stayed in the top 10! Thanks to Jeremy for his hard work and for “more cowbells.”
… at Free Old Testament Audio. Surprisingly, considering how little I blogged last month and how much my 30 day Alexa number rose (not good!) I remain #9.
Thanks to Jeremy for all the hard work in producing the Biblioblog Top 50 this month. Even though I lost ground in my 30 day Alexa ranking, it was still good enough for #9.
By the way Joel, writing a script is also work. Few seconds? It is to laugh!
Thanks to Jeremy for doing all the work. I’m at #8 amongst some pretty great company!
