Blogroll Update: We grow, but blogrolling sucks

Atheist Blogroll Design 3

The Atheist Blogroll has grown to 870 active members. I like seeing the new members. It amazes me that so many people continue to start blogging. Ahd that so many new atheist bloggers keep joining our little community.

Unfortunately, we are stuck with Blogrolling.com. Their website offers this suckfest from Nov 18. They promise another update sometime Thursday. Of course, they did not mention which Thursday… It could be some Thursday in December (they missed November already). It could be some Thursday in 2009. How do they expect people to trust them if they cannot even publish simple status updates.

The thing is, blogrolling.com officially sucks ass. So does their parent company Tucows.  It’s been months since the service went down, and still nothing. Plus the service was spotty at best ever since Tucows bought it back in 2994. They cabbit even put together a simple update. So what is the story? Is blogrolling coming back as V2, or is blogrolling dead?  Do I need to find another service, or can I trust you with the future of the Atheist Blogroll?

I have no faith is this company, no faith at all.

Alvin – if you read this post, it is time we pool our collective resources and make our own blogrolling tool. I mean, how hard can it be? It’s not rocket science. Plus, we’ve made much more sophisticated software together (several times).  What do you say?
