Sweet!

It only took a year but we have a valuation on ESF - $16,371.66! Of course, I have no idea the black magic being used to cook up this value and since no real person is signing checks for blogs, it is really worth $0. No matter, ESF is as much for sale as my dog. Why would I want to sell something that takes so much work and consumes my free time?? I also have the feeling that this value is really a series of metrics that are monitoring global visitor traffic, search engine links and comments as opposed to real revenue. ESF has no revenue, unlike Spend Matters that has significant sponsorship. That being said, I am very happy that we seem to have the #2 highest value!
Thanks to my friend, Doug Hudgeon, for finding this fun little application. As a point of reference, heavy traffic - politically charged blogs are worth a tad more:
counterterrorismblog.org, is worth $802,211.34
buzzmachine.com, is worth $1,618,536.18

Damn! I was so hoping for Procurement Central to win 2nd place. But I’ll take my 15.8K and be off. Any idea how I can pick up the check?
