Dear LAist, Is That You in TIME?

page 21 in Time, bitches

Some people say that blogging on Sundays is worthless. Most of our favorite Gawker sites take the weekends off, for example, as do many of our favorite gossip blogs, as did the Lord.

And even fewer people have any love for the old fashioned liveblogging, in all its nerdy glory.

Two Sundays ago we were invited to liveblog the MTV Movie Awards. LAist Movie Editor Elina Shatkin did the majority of the liveblogging, and Joey Maloney took pictures from the red carpet. I sat back at homebase taking pictures of my tv and merging them with Elina's posts. It was three hours of frenzied teamwork producing 10 posts while everyone else were packing their bongs in preparation of the second-to-last Sopranos.

Today we found out that Time magazine mentioned us. We have no idea what they're talking about in regards to the score, but we'll take it. Hi mom!

It says : Google News Hits + Google Blog Hits = The Score

I guess just because you know how to write doesn't mean you know how to read.

(why is being a prick so fun?)

yes but what does it mean?

Nice going Tony and to your team too. Remember the days when a certian boss said your blogging would amount to nothing... Keep up the great work.

I'd say they pick a word or phrase to search on both the Google (regular) Search and the Google Blog Search and then add up the hits that that word or phrase shows on the upper right-hand side and then divide by 1000000000000000 and come up with the number. Of course, that part isn't included in the equation so .... ASK TIME!

WOOT....I was there!

very nice mr tony, even though they treated you guys like second class citizens, power to the people and citizen journalism!!
