Are You Reading A Top 100 Health Blog?

Oh, yes you are, according to Technorati, which I happened to check in with yesterday and was surprised to see a Top 100 Health Blog badge next to this here website's name. In fact, yesterday this site was #33 among health blogs tracked by Technorati, sandwiched between Herbal Water and That's Fit. Among the tracking services Top 100 health blogs are only a few mental health ones: PsychCentral.com's blog at #3, Postpartum Progress at # 16 and Psychiatric News at #36. Mind Hacks at #23 is more neuroscience-y than mental health-y although it often dips into the psych world (and quite well, too). Health Care Renewal at #43 also deals with mental health issues, amongst other things.

Psychiatric News is a "chronicle of human rights violations and crimes by the psychiatric industry." And people call me anti-psychiatry!?

Technorati's rankings are based on how many blogs and websites link to a particular blog, so if you want to see me get up there with Postpartum Progress, then link to this site. Or should I go out and get a glamor shot for my site like PPP's author has up? (What is it with some bloggers and photos of themselves?)

Glamour shot. I vote for a glamour shot, definitely.

Furious Seasons belongs in the top 5, and I say that because I don't think there are that many that would rate in the top five. Healthcare Renewal and the Carlot would be in there.

Of course Pharmalot just got back online.

Postpartum Progress should rate 0 and PsychCentral shouldn't be allowed to be rated being it's an online treatment center for profit.

Mind Hacks has some of the best content on the web, IMHO.

You'll always be #1 in my books.

One-stop mental health news shopping that's second to none.
