    Congratulations! This is a great achievement!
    おめでとう!
  • Good work Philip, you deserve it! 30th over all is quite an achievement when you consider they received nearly 500 nominations and 100 made it on to the final list. The list is also a real good way to get exposed to different audience than you normally would in the small pond that is J-blogging fraternity. I'm taking a little bit of time to go through some of the other blogs featured, because they are all at the really interesting intersection of technology and learning. I'm really happy that you could be counted among them.
  • Thanks Brett! I'm very pleased with my ranking as my blog is very young, and the list contains many good, well established blogs.
