Thanks for the feedback
Thanks for the feedback. Although please note that Featured Blogs and the Browse link that allows you to sort blogs by popularity, date and name, as well as the different Categories are a good way to explore the breadth and depth of Blogging Network.

I'd like to see a truly random function where I can simply click "next" and be taken to any random blog on the whole network. I know there are good writers and articles out there that I'm completely missing because they haven't written anything in a week or two.

Updating/categories
Regarding updating, the selection is a combination of popularity and updating. For instance, updating a blog with a lower ranking will not necessarily result in it being featured.
Regarding the category suggestion, that is certainly reasonable. Initially, the Featured Blogs section actually displayed the most popular blogs in each category. However, several members voiced the concern that this might cause disruption within categories, so this was changed. We will consider a possible compromise in future.
Because of how the random selection works, it is possible for some blogs to be featured more often than others during short periods. However, over long periods, e.g. a week, the behavior should be random. We will check on this to see if there is an issue.
