What's your blog worth?

My blog is worth $5,645.40.

How much is your blog worth?

Dane Carlson's Business Opportunities Weblog has a little tool for putting a monetary value on a blog (yeah, yeah... the experience is priceless ;) Here's how the calculation is done:

Inspired by Tristan Louis's research into the value of each link to Weblogs Inc, I've created this little applet using Technorati's API which computes and displays your blog's worth using the same link to dollar ratio as the AOL-Weblogs Inc deal.

To put it in context, I looked up the value of several other blogs that I regularly read. Art21's is worth $11,290.80. Edward Winkleman's is worth $92,020.02. And BoingBoing is worth a snazzy $10,504,395.78.

I'm dubious about how the value is estimated (for example, posting on other people's blogs with links back to your own would pump your blog's value). But still, it's kinda fun.

Update:
My dad's blog valuation is $6,209.94 when check the value for http://leisureguy.wordpress.com but $45,727.74 when I check http://leisureguy.wordpress.com/ (note the trailing slash). Hmm, I just checked again and now it says the latter URL is worth $134,925.06.

Don't take the valuation too seriously (I wouldn't suggest using it as loan collateral).
