Well the only way you can get that many people from around the world together in one place is on the internet!

Accordingly to Tino Buntic there are 55 Million Blogs on the internet and he would like to feature all of them. However he cannot and has settled on 2000. To get linked up with him all you need to post you link request here and he will check you out to see if you are suitable as conditions do apply.

One of the big requirements is that you need to post a picture of yourself. That’s right people you will have to “come out of the closet” or in other words you need to drop your anonymity online. I think this is a good thing as he will actually link to real people, real people I like to meet and network with. I as I am rather sick of getting linked by spam blogs (splogs) or Adsense mining bot blogs. However this also leaves out blog aggregators, blog networks and blog collectives. Not sure how I feel about that though. Regardless, personally I rather this idea of linking to real people as thats what the internet is about, but hey there is no guarantee if that picture is the real in the first place or not?

Anyways here are the ones he has collected so far, and I will come back to update them from time to time to keep the circulation and churning going. Can you spot my ugly mug?

Link to the original site that has all the mugshots!

So many beautiful people to meet so little time…I love the internet don’t you?

Edit 1:Heh-heh after a little subtle nagging from one of mybloglog friends to update, I gone ahead to do so. God I hope this does not crash Photobucket’s server!

    At first I thought this idea wouldn’t amount to much. Now I’m seeing how useful it has been to be on the list, as those linkbacks keep coming, boosting my Technorati status.

    Thanks for this buddy. Also, I’m enjoying your site and musings.

    All the best,

    Commenting Rules: I love reading your comments as it allows me to interact and learn from you. Being critical is fine, giving constructive criticism, even better. However if you are rude, I will delete your comment. Repeat, and I will blacklist you. The world is full of negativity, so I don't need anymore on my blog, which I consider my online home. Would you encourage Neanderthal behavior in your home? Neither would I.

    Finally, please use your personal name or initials and not your business name. By doing the latter, it comes off like spam, and that’s an auto delete. Thank you and I hope you enjoy being part of the conversation!
