Blog Hijacking!
IT’S OFFICIAL: I AM THE BIGGEST BLOGEEK.
Some of the regular readers may have wondered about the recent influx of comments on my blog. Unfortunately it’s not due to particularly stellar posts or any grand accomplishments by me. I did just what the title says- I hijacked a blog. Actually, as of this morning, two blogs.
I noticed that the “Recently Updated” list on the Blogger Dashboard hasn’t been updated at all for the last few weeks so I checked out some of the sites. One of the blogs no longer had an owner and I wondered if I could snap it up. Two minutes later, “My Blog” was mine. I added a little redirect to “People are Idiots” and voila! The people cometh.
But what I really wanted was the blog titled “Lesbian Therapy.” Sure, I knew it wouldn’t help with my Christmas card argument but I also knew that a title like that would draw in the masses and thrust my reader numbers to the heights of such esteemed works as Time, Newsweek and Big Boobies Weekly. I checked back today and, as luck would have it, “Lesbian Therapy” was available! (Yeah, THAT’S the sort of insignificant “luck” that I have). Besides gaining more readers, I get the amusement of imagining hordes of guys plowing through a bunch of posts, all the while wondering, “Come on! When does she talk about showering in the women’s locker room?”
So why do I need more readers? I don’t. My old group of loyal readers are great but most seemed to be on the same wavelength as me and I wanted a little more dissention. I won’t feel like I’ve truly made it as a blogger until I get my first official death threat. If anybody’s a little peeved at my blog-hogging, I assure you that no matter how bad you think my blog is, it’s still much better than the ones that filled those slots before. Plus, if my usual luck stays true to form, Blogger will finally fix the problem tomorrow and this place will be a ghost town once again.
In the meantime, thanks for coming, have a look around and don’t be afraid to admit how you found my blog.
Whatever you do; don’t start hacking into banks accounts hahahahaha.
Good blog anyway. smartass

I’m happy I stumbled upon your blog….I’m finding it very, very interesting. Bookmarked, for sure (yes, I said ‘for sure’, because I live in Southern California and though it is 2006, you can’t live in SC without having ‘for sure,’ ‘like,’ and ‘totally,’ as part of your daily vocabulary, whether one likes it or not, AND on top of that, I’m gay, so it’s, like, even more necessary). Ta! Wow, I sure hope you’re a potential liberal President, otherwise that gay comment will totally not go over well with you.
Way too funny! I only clicked on this blog because, like you, I’d noticed that the most recent had been the same blogs for quite a while.
new to your blog. enoyed it
I am in similar boat as, in that I am trying to increase readership for no good reason. I did notice that the same blogs were appearing on the most recently updated list over and over again but just thought the owners were dedicated or addicted to some form of performance enhancing drugs.
I am an 18 year old male that came to you via My Blog, but I was heading to Lesbian Therapy right after that.
Guys if you are registered member of google adscent, DON’T HIJACK DEAD BLOGS; otherwise you’ll get your account suppended and you’ll lose credit along with the suppendid.
Hey Jenee, I was WAY curious about the ‘recently updated’ thing always being the same blogs. I’m new here at blogspot and that was one of the reasons I decided to blog here. So I clicked on your blog (it had by far the most interesting name) and read this post; but your homepage won’t open so I still don’t have the scoop. Anybody care to enlighten me?
If you’re interested, check out my blog: http://truthisacrazypoet.blogspot.com
(I don’t think it sucks, but I’m biased!)
rats, stupid thing won’t let me edit my comments. I was going to say ‘the recently updated feature’ was one of the reasons I decided to blog here… not that they’re always the same post!
Great blog, by the way. I’m going to link to you. Whatever you did to get onto that list, it worked!
People are Idiots of course, because nobody try to understand “The meaning of life and its Trascendence” Please be so kind as to know about the sentence: “Let´s be genuinely sincere, grateful and respectful with The One Who Gave Us Life, with Nature and with ourselves” in this sentence is everything and in http://www.geocities.com/paulbequi/index.html By Ms President
Whaaaat? I expected Lesbians in Therapy, but in return I discover a ravaging blogger with a provocative sense of humor.
I feel slightly cheated.
i new to yur blog…i really enjyed the experience..thanx…definately got u bookmarked…LOL
I wish i had thought of that :p
I just went and read your story about “borrowing” the Blog names on the blogger front page.
There are other ways of increasing readership, but I have to admit that was a pretty damn smart one
Made me laugh out loud…
Came for the Lesbian Therapy… stayed for the humor. Excellent blog.
Jenee,
Yes, you got me… I had to see what Lesbian Therapy was about… maybe straight girls being taught the deeper meaning of life through interesting new experiences?… Anyhow, I still don’t know how you hijack a blog. I have a new blog at: http://www.rayspoliticalblog.blogspot.com and I am trying to figure out how to promote it. I don’t think that I have any readers yet. But this is great. I will add you to my favorites and try to keep an eye on you – time permitting. Thanks.
Damn, and I was looking for boobs!
(You are my new hero. The hijacking was a fantastic idea. I’ve got to link to you!)
yeah, kind of lame that you had to hijack a blog from some poor lesbo out there. on the other hand, you look great for 104! pilates?
we have to keep no touch sex web then we will keep clean web.it is my finding.
