I just got BoingBoinged.

One of my blog posts (with an admittedly controversial topic) was featured on BoingBoing. The post has well over 1000 unique hits right now and almost 20 pretty controversial comments. My average hit count for a given post is less than 10 and if I get comments at all I used to be happy.

Guess this is my 15-minutes-fame moment according to Andy Warhol...

Are you a Baggy?

Pardon?

Can it be monetized for 15 minutes? Perhaps milked to 30? Exploited to 45?

The links from thousands of BoingBoing fanboys should come any second.

Are you a Baggy?

@ incywincy: boingboing = a (highly trafficked) weblog about pop culture

Pardon?

@ pmkpmk: Baggies = nickname for English soccer team WBA, whose fans have a chant titled 'boing boing'

Thanks quiet_man

That was illuminating.

For the last few days , I have been totally bewildered w.r.t. this thread.

Returning late to this thread: I thought about monetizing too and put some AdSense on the post. Got exactly 1 click :-)
