That's great to hear nudge. Can you recommend me a few small blogs that you had great experiences with?
FYI for those interested, this is a very good read.

I didn't submit it to unaffiliated smaller blogs simply because it wasn't really a business and after the lifehacker article I was happy enough.
You should read the blog of the Balsamiq mockup software creator. He has a great post - I forget where, I'm afraid - about exactly how and what he wrote to bloggers when he was launching.
