Samantha over at The Crazy Rants.. has posted a 10 commandments of blogging..
personally I think Link Whoring is fun and educational, at least on some level..
and spelling and grammar are bonuses, so get over it..

Sam’s 10 Commandments Of Blogging
i) Thou shalt not commit link whoring.

vx) Thou shalt make an attempt to use proper grammar and spelling.

This is just fun …David at Third World County has this to say regarding comments :
“Look, you guys: I am NOT, repeat NOT responsible for what some asshat says in comments. If, repeat IF I have the time, energy and brainpower after a day that has tuened my brain to mush, I MIGHT be able to read through and comprehend alla the comments posted. ”

and it goes on and on..
