		<description>I pulled it awhile ago, I think I got about 12 hits total on it. Not worth my time, plus, like everyone else said - it&#039;s an ugly little thing.

		<description>blogrush doesn&#039;t work. they have values and stuff about my feed being circulated by I get no visits, not even peeks. I&#039;d rather have a program that brings traffic in, and let&#039;s that traffic choose between reading my blog&#039;s content or not, than have my post title be a tuned-out sidebar feature in blogs. Waste of space, really.

		<description>It depends for me. I have a couple of sites that have the BlogRush widget that get zero traffic from it, and I have one blog that gets more traffic than it did before the widget was placed. So for me the jury is still out.</description>

		<description>Strangely I found your blog through the Blogrush widget.  Normally I don&#039;t click the headlines, but I found the title of your post interesting.

Haven&#039;t decided if I&#039;ll keep the widget or not, I&#039;ll probably give it a couple of months and make a decision after that.</description>

		<description>Bumsrush told me my blog sucked and to go away. Since then I have felt left out, and when I see it on other blogs it just brings back bad memories.

		<description>Blogrush is long gone. I toasted it in november. I think their biggest mess up was telling 10 000 users to go away and find something else.
Entrecard is way better. :smile:
