Thank you for submitting this. I built this over the weekend. I have been blogging since the mid-2000's when blogging was at it's peak. There was a whole community around it - familiar faces commenting, friends promoting each other's post - sites like Digg, StumbleUpon, and Technorati where you could find interesting new blogs.
And then it slowly faded away as social media platforms rose in popularity. There are still many people who blog but not enough places to find them since the social platforms pretty much deprioritize external links.
I built Blogosphere to aggregate posts from over 1,000 blogs (adding more every hour and you can add them via the "Submit Blog") along with categories to help people find new and interesting blogs.
