They have a list of "Unknown Weblogs by Popularity". The monster looks at your subscription list and cross checks it with others "in your immediate blogging community". It's a really neat list to check every once and a while. Found MyDD, the "Due Diligence of Politics, Election Forecast & the World Today", in it.
I like the categories feature of MovableType... I should start using the blasted things. Makes it easier for me to search what previous idiocy I may or may not have said about some topic.
The monster is a bit flaky, but at least it doesn't consume all space and time when it fails like .NET based systems seem to. It politely dies and seems to clean up nicely after itself. And doesn't do it nearly as often as I've seen other aggregators do in the past.
