      <description>&lt;p&gt;Congratulations to Kevin Burton on &lt;a href="http://feedblog.org/2007/10/04/announcing-new-versions-of-spinn3r-and-tailrank/"&gt;releasing Tailrank 2.5&lt;/a&gt;. I must admit that, although I have been reading Kevin's blog for some time I've never paid much attention to Tailrank (I'm not a big user of Technorati or Techmeme either for that matter).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anyway being the good little self-obsessed blogger that I am I fed my blog to Tailrank's blog-specific meme tracker (available on the &lt;a href="http://tailrank.com/tools"&gt;tools&lt;/a&gt; page). I was quite expecting to get a "We've never heard of you" response but, in fact, it did come up with something:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002552.html"&gt;Read it? Why would I bother to read it?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Which was a post I wrote about requiring politicians to make a legal declaration of having read and understood a bill before they can vote on it (with consequences for cheats) and, now I think about it, it did get a few links.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I'm also reminded that I still think this is a good idea. So I wrote another letter to my MP about it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
