Chris, I stand corrected: you appear on 5 out of the seven lists (I had not gotten your URL sorted properly in one case, which is why I shorted you). Here are the lists you appeared on as of last Friday, July 16, 2004, and your rank on each list respectively:
Daypop, 76 – htt://daypop.com/blogrank/
Feedster, 15 – htt://feedster.com/top100.php
Popdex, 40 – htt://popdex.com/alltime/
Technorati, 84 – htt://technorati.com/cosmos/top100.html
Bloglines, 39 – htt://bloglines.com/topblogs

Oh, yeah, you're a blog rock star, Chris. I'm in the midst of a blogosphere research project (details of which are premature to share), but one of the first steps was to merge the “Blog Ecosystems” from seven different services that track Top 100 lists: Bloglines, Blogpulse, Daypop, Feedster, Popdex, Technorati, Truth Laid Bear. You thereby make my cut of the A-List, in that you show up on 4 of those lists. I'm actually cutting off at those who show up on at least three lists; only 56 bloggers make that cut.

So, what are the advantages of Blogware (over, say, Typepad and the like)? I did some quick and dirty research, and I'm not seeing any real glaringly obvious selling points there.
In fact, the right out of the gate, I'm asked to 'search around for a reseller that best meets my needs.' I don't wanna have to “search around.” Any thoughts?
