Halley: “Okay, I just asked Instapundit to put me on his blogroll. It's not the first time -- he's a good guy and he promised me he would. Let's see how long it takes. Synchronize your watches. C'mon, Glenn, just do it.”
The way this reads is, Halley first asked to be on Glenn's blogroll, then Glenn said yes, and then since he hasn't yet, Halley is asking (in public no less) why not. So let's assume that's the way it went down. First of all: if you have to ask to be on a blogroll, doesn't that give some indication as to the quality of your weblog? (The alternative is that he promised to put her on his blogroll, then she had to ask if he was going to keep his promise. But still, she feels the need to ask. In public!) In other words, if her weblog was good enough to be on Glenn's blogroll (in Glenn's opinion and his opinion only: it's his blogroll, remember), it would already be there, now wouldn't it? At the end, she tells Glenn what to do with his weblog (“just do it”). If you were told to do something—by someone who is neither your parent nor boss—would you do it?
