blogfinding game

as i hunted through my archives today, looking to see what comments were still there and what weren't, i found references to, and thus was reminded of, all these great now-inactive blogs of the days of yore. my new game is to find a defunct, but still on the web blog that i used to like (for example this one) and then click through that blog's blogroll to see which of those sites are still around. it has helped me discover (or sometimes rediscovering) a bunch of good blogs that i might put on my regular reading list.
