Selling a startup is like selling a horse in a parallel universe where the glue factories are paying more than the horse racers.

I don't think the Internet is losing anything by the closing of MyBlogLog. It became obscure and useless even before Yahoo bought them. One man's opinion.

I agree. I was a user, and MyBlogLog was nothing but a circle jerk badge of honor for bloggers.
