Circles within circles [MetaBlog]

So the results are coming in thick and fast - no, not the Eurovision Song contest ('nul points' for Britain, top marks for exposed flesh) but the Inner Circle question. Dwight Shih votes for content, as does Ted Leung, who also hints that linking is important. Robert Scoble, as I have mentioned, votes for both style (dump the frames! - I'm thinking about it) and for heavy linking. Scott Duffy tells me I have Bloggers Angst (possibly, Scott, but I think it was more part of an ongoing conversation with Scoble, whose 'spotlight' - along with Winer's - can do no harm...)

My personal conclusion so far is that content is important, but that frequent postings, many links to other bloggers (especially referrers) and a style that ensures referrer links point to the correct posting are all crucial hygiene factors. But I'm still watching the voting patterns.
