Margaret: Great questions. Here are my stats:
impressions - 585 Hits -2

Since I started with 1200 impressions, that means my link was shown over 600 times.

click in = click from other blogs to yours
click out = click from your blogs to others
Hits = click out - click in

A negative number would suggest 2 more people visited my blog, than people clicking from my blog. Unfortunately, I only see partial June stats and not the May stats.

My goal is to review various social networking systems. You have to make the call whether or not each system is worth your time. Many systems take effort, and you can’t judge your results based upon my efforts.

Why do they call it 23 blogs when I only see 10 in the widget?

The scrolling thing makes me batty but someone else has already pointed that out and like autoplay music and videos, it turns me off, so I won’t be likely to click that link for sure.

I’m probably going to give this one a pass.

Have you seen much/any traffic from it since you installed it?

I’ve clicked one or two. It never says “don’t click your own widget”. I’d hope they would ban abuse, but I don’t see a cutoff limit. My best guess would be one click on a link per Ip per day. That way you could meet others in the network.

Nice review, Turnip. I was tempted to try on both of my blogs and I saw your blog at the lowest part of the widget.

However, I cannot find a clear FAQ section there so maybe you can answer me here.

What would happen if I click the all blogs on my widget, would they ban you for life?

I think this type of link exchange reminds of blogrush, what do you think?

Thanks.
