I'm famous. You can be too.

Steve Rubel liked my post about Google Reader and linked to it from his influential Micro Persuasion blog. My 15 seconds of fame resulted in, oh, about a 10% increase over my usual number of visitors for the day.

If you want your 15 seconds, there are a couple of ways you can have it.

The first way is to post a cycling-related photo over at Flickr in a way that I can find it. The best way is to tag the photo "bicycle." For your photo to make the cut, make sure it has a good caption: Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How. The photo should be technically good. It's Not About the Bike: I like to focus on people or places, not things, so Bike Porn will rarely be featured. I explain these things in more detail here. Take a look at previous feature photos to get an idea of what I like.

Another way is to leave a comment on any post with a link to your website. If I like the website or blog, I'll probably write a blog post about it. If you've left a comment and think your website is worthy of mention, it's likely I've forgotten so feel free to remind me.
