I look at it this way. I would use any link from a blogger that gives real useful and valuable information. But as far as I can tell the top blogs are rehashing all the same info. I can't remember when any of them revealed something really great. Because that's the double edge sword. If they do that then they are the scourge of the community. But if they don't, people like me won't use their links. They reveal just enough to wet our beaks. But the real meat and potatoes are a guarded secret. So at this juncture when applying for a card I find my own link. How many times can I read about the Carlsson deal. Or the BA 100,000 mile card. "Its always about the cards" $$$$$$$$$$$
