Just ignore the noise!

Derek Powazek on gatekeepers and gatekeepers:
So now, my fellow bloggers, I beseech you: Ignore the numbers. Ignore the lists. Blog what you love and the rest will follow. Everything else is just noise.
BTW, Derek was one of the very first bloggers I have read in my life. Must have been around 1999. He is always a joy. In case you didn't know, he is also the creator of fray, the famous personal storytelling blog.
