BoingBoing's Inner Circle

I love BoingBoing. Don't get me wrong. But recently I've sent them two notes about items I thought were BB-worthy. One about some Steve Erwin memorial graffiti (see earlier post) and one about a kick-ass album cover mash-up (again, original post here). The gang at BB proceeded to sit on the Erwin story for a week and the album cover mash-up for five days before posting about them -- but only after someone else wrote in. The Steve Erwin graffiti photograph they posted was even the exact same location I sent them a photo of.

A while back when my brother and I were working on nyc2123 we sent them the press release about the series launching. CC licensed graphic novel for the PSP -- we figured it was right up Corey's alley, but he didn't post about it until our friend Cal (who used to work on Second Life and knows the BB crew) wrote them about it.

What gives, BoingBoing? You guys don't read suggestions unless they're sent in from people you know? How many other trivial but interesting stories are out there that you guys are glossing over because they aren't submitted by your inner circle?
