Yikes that is an ugly site. To answer your question, I've not tried submitting there.

I got "There are currently 35205 blog(s) in the queue. Your blog is expected to be added within 117 day(s)."
I guess it will take it's time then.

I agree it's not very attractive. I submitted my travel blog a few weeks ago. 35,000+ entries I can see it taking a lot longer than 117 days.

They're number two on Google for "blog", blogger.com is currently number one!

Depends on geolocation - in UK they are No1. too
I could be wrong but I don't think the word 'blog' would bring in much traffic anyway - I am listed on the britblog which is #5 on Google for 'blog' and I've not had one visitor from it.

"It is important to us that all entries are checked for consistency before approval, however Blogwise is run by volunteers contributing their spare time. There may be a small delay before your blog is added to the directory."
A philanthropic and badly designed website is a hub site for one of the most commercial terms in internet history. What an irony.

I know, that sucks man! How did they get so many links anyway? They must get so much traffic, probably should just place ads to earn money!
