Really?? We’re the number three philosophy blog? I have no idea what these rankings really mean, but it’s still kind of nice to see. Here I thought we were amongst the teeny tiny fish.

I was glad to see this as well! Thanks for posting this and many congrats! Big fish, indeed….
here’s the ranking thing that tom links to:
http://www.invesp.com/blog-rank/Philosophy
i actually can’t tell what the numbers mean (other than one clearly has something to do with yahoo), but some of our numbers are *huge*! you don’t have to know what’s being quantified in order to be impressed by them, eh?! ;-)
(more seriously, it can only be a good thing for feminist philosophy more broadly, so yay for us, and kudos to jender!)
sorry! ‘thom’. not ‘tom’. :-)
Well that is nice, congrats!
Yes, it looks like it might very well just be Hand Waving (With Numbers), but congrats all the same. :-)
Oh yawn. We noticed our high rank just over a year ago in this post. I noticed that it even says Jender and I discussed it!!
One might think of using the figures to, for example, show a department that feminist philosophy is getting attention.
Damn , I’ve got a poor memory. I thought this was new!
I hope it was clear I thought it was funny. And in fact that stats do change, so we can celebrate holding on to a lead.
I probably would have forgotten too except I have been checking back over the last year on the figures. It’s the drive to the quantitative.
I didn’t actually pick up on the humour, so thanks for the clarification!
Well, I hate that we have to rank everything all the time, and I always question the basis for the rankings, but in this case, I am happy for the high rank. Thanks for all the information you’ve posted that I have shared with students and colleagues!
Here’s a link to the original rankings that explain. (Based on visitors, RSS feed membership, and search engine stats)

Whoops, didn’t see that there were already comments.
Congrats! I’m not sure what the numbers mean either, but it seems like a good sign, in any case.
Thanks for starting this blog, and for keeping it going over the years. As time goes on, I’m more and more impressed by what I see here. It’s one of a handful of blogs that I read regularly (and it’s the only philosophy blog I follow–usually philosophy blogs bore or irritate me). Keep up the amazing work!
Damn, I’d better start doing my homework and writing like a proper academic. People are actually reading the stuff I write here? <:-/
Well, thanks for indulging my quirky humanness anyway. The practice helps. Maybe some day I'll be smart enough to make you philosophers look even better with what you've taught me.
Congratulations :-)
