For the fourth straight month, Framing Science ranks among the top 15 science-related blogs, as tracked by Wikio. The position of a blog in the Wikio ranking depends on the number and weight of the incoming links from other blogs. (Blogrolls are not taken into account and Wikio only counts links from the last 120 days.)

Journal Nature has published a short article about science blogging. You do not need a subscription to read it - you can find it here.

Bad Astronomy ranks 28428 in the "other" category. I guess that makes you a much better science blogger than Phil Plait. Right?
You're also way ahead of The Panda's Thumb, which Wikio doesn't even recognize.
Other blogs that aren't ranked include RichardDawkins.net and John Hawks Anthropology Weblog. I wonder what your ranking would be if they were included? Care to take a guess?

Keep up the good work. You're only eleven places behind Pharyngula.
