Bizarre BlogRush Criticism

I don’t get it.
I’m not a defender of John Reese or anything (though I do think it’s funny that people attack small entrepreneurs who enjoy some success - meanwhile they don’t have a bad thing to say about evil companies like Google who screw large amounts of people daily) .
But what’s this silly self contradictory criticism of BlogRush?
I’m reading a lot of “the click throughs are so low, so why would I have it on my page when all it does is lose my visitors to somewhere else, instead of bring me them?”
Which is impossible - either - it’s bringing you many visitors (and losing you about the same amount), or it’s not bringing you any visitors and not losing you any either. It’s not like you’ve got a defective blog rush widget which specifically LOSES you traffic.
If the widget is only getting low CTR’s - then that’s the reality - FOR EVERYONE. Small gains, small losses.
I think the real issue is that the “something for nothing’ers” didn’t get a free lunch. And now they’re bitching about it.

I have to agree with you here SBJ. I have the BlogRush on my 3 blogs and I figure what do I have to lose, nothing, but everything to gain. And as you so aptly mentioned it’s FREE. In any event I think it’s too early to be judgemental and I wish I was brainiac enough to have figured out something as innovative as the BlogRush! The kinks will work themselves out and then everyone will be singing its praises. Human nature, so au contraire!
