		<description>Now I could be wrong but it appears my comment was magically removed....

		<description>Perez Hilton is considered one of the biggest blogs? I have never gotten that impression. I think that&#039;s great! though I admit I always seem to hear more chatter online that he gives people the creeps - how he writes on the pictures or something. I also thought it had ad sense on it. good for him.

Either way, thank you to tech crunch sponsors for spending money Online! It&#039;s good for all of us when you do. :)</description>

		<description>Thanks Mike for this great blog.  Since I started visiting this site, my life has improved dramatically.  I sleep better at night.  I find myself smiling more at work.  My sex life has improved, although it&#039;s very difficult to add to perfection.  Overall, I would say I&#039;m a better person now than I was before I discovered your blog.

Seriously though, thanks for this great service.  I, as a young professional, find your blog as a great source of motivation!</description>

		<description>Thanks very much Alex. I was actually thinking about the issue of readership today when reading about how business week is concerned that they will become irrelevant. The idea is you have to stay a &quot;must read&quot; v. a &quot;discretionary read&quot;. I never thought of it that way, but I would rather have TC be a &quot;must read&quot; for a small group of passionate readers than a discretionary read for the masses.</description>

		<description>No problem Michael :)

I have in the past been angry at times (not angry, but you know) about the sponsor issue but I do agree on this one.

Keep up the great work, yours is the first site I visit each day.</description>

		<description>Alex, I agree that it is odd. The main thing is that we want to provide extra value to sponsors by writing an occasional &quot;thank you&quot; in the blog itself. This gets their products in front of people who read the site via RSS as well. Sponsors are a necessary evil, but in our case I think we have a really cool group of companies.</description>

		<description>Thanks Mike for all your dedication, this site rocks.

But one thing. I understand this is a business however I find the way you write a special post for your sponsors quite weird.

Perez Hilton is one of the biggest blogs and yet I have never seen a special post for their sponsors ever ...

Your feedback on this would be appreciated.

Regardless though, your site is a solid one and deserves credit where credit is due. If the sponsors posts is what keeps this blog going then by all means keep doing it.
