I got an e-mail from a reporter at the New York Times. She is doing a story about bloggers who are possibly disappointed with the size of their audience. I wrote back to say I wasn't unhappy with my readership. She had taken my comment about "competition with Ron Silliman for traffic" as referring to myself. I was referring, of course, to Jim Behrle and with his friendly and I assume good natured daily rivalry with Ron.

She called me about an hour ago. Look for a story in the Times by Catherine Greenman on blogs, sometime in the next few days.
