Blog expert?

,

Here's a quiz to determine if you are a blog expert or not. It presents 10 well-know blogs and for each one of them you have to select its tag-line (or slogan or motto or whatever you want to call it).

Although I don't consider my self a blog expert, whatever that means, I seriously object with the kind of results this quiz gave me. I was presented with those ten blogs and I was able to match only two of them with their respective tag-lines (Scobleizer and Slashdot). And this is the conclusion at which the quiz arrived:

You are still very new to blogs. You never subscribed to an RSS feed, let alone understood what it is. But by completing this quiz, you show you are willing to find out more about blogs. Continue reading to improve, 'cause for now you're nothing but a blog newbie.

On what basis can someone assume that by only reading two of these blogs I have never subscribed to a feed? What if I present the author of this quiz with the ten blogs most well known out of the blogs I regularly read? In fact I don't even remember the tag-lines for those and I read them on a daily basis.

Blogs presented in the quiz
Boing Boing
MicroPersuasion
Slashdot
Daily Kos
Gizmodo
Kottke
Waxy.org
Gadgetopia.com
Joho The Blog
Scobleizer

Mr Green,

you have a point in not considering Slashdot as a blog, so that's another weak point in the "quiz".

Are you referring to the best blond joke ever, that I read about yesterday?
