DISQUS

"Hand-picked" in their case means until one of their editorial staff 'reviews' your submitted site, you have no 'official' rating in their database. I've been waiting for two months for them to review me.

Hi eng1ne, this is Gladys Kong, co-founder of Blogged.com. First of all, thanks for your comment. When blogs are submitted to our site, we try to review them within 72 hours. For some reason we missed yours and I apologize for that. We have now rated your site. And just to clarify, stories are picked from both rated and unrated sites in our database, being rated is not a requirement for our editors when they choose their stories. Our stories are definitely hand-picked to showcase bloggers and their writings, but we have built a lot of tools to help our editors to do this efficiently. Please continue to check back with us and send us your feedback.

Gladys, thanks for picking up my comment and responding so quickly! I just noticed that my site has been reviewed, and I appreciate it. have displayed my blog rating (or, until today, un-rating) proudly in my site sidebar, so this is great news.

FYI, I submitted my site for review twice or more over the span of a few months, so you may want to review your procedure for looking at submitted blogs.
