		<description>Thanks for mentioning me for Blogger Appreciation Day.

I have been visiting your blog for more than a year now and I am still finding good articles in your archives that I didn&#039;t know about.</description>

		<description>Aaron,

Your &quot;somewhat irrelevant&quot; rants are way more welcome than a lot of the &quot;somewhat relevant&quot; stuff out there. You help marketers deflate the self-serious pretense we&#039;ve all been known to inhale at times.


Tim,

Great suggestion to add Robbin! LunaMetrics is outstanding.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the mention, Robert. I&#039;m flattered that you include me among such prestigious company. 

I would put up my list, but I think I&#039;m better off just seconding yours. Great list. One person you might consider adding is &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lunametrics.com/blog/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Robbin Steif at LunaMetrics&lt;/a&gt;. A consistently great read. 

Thanks again.</description>

		<description>Thank you, Jason -- on both accounts!

Get Elastic is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the real business impact of usability and conversion optimization. We&#039;d feel pretty lonely out here without you and Linda sharing research and helping us to think big.

The same goes for Mitch and the Twist Image team!</description>

		<description>No snub intended, Tom. Please do share your recommendations. (I&#039;ve read Upper Westside Journal before, and I know you speak Mandarin, so no excuses. ;) )  

We have been linked to be a few Chinese blogs, but only recently have we hired someone on our marketing team with experience working in Beijing. Like many others, we at FutureNow are taking strides to become more &quot;international&quot; ourselves.

I also know that we have several readers from Japan and India with blogs. If any of them are reading this and see that they&#039;re not represented, please leave us a comment so we can link to you.</description>
