Wow I feel smarter now! I've seen your site more than once, really cool and different from boring and lame blogs that we see everyday. Yours requires thought and I could see one of these blog buying agencies gettin at you. GET READY FOR THAT BIG CHECK!
I sold a site of mine for high in the 6 digits, and with the very usable and catchy Domain name, you might just top that.

My advice, stay consistent, and ignore negative comments.
