Review: blogsitter.net

Ok, I have to admit. I still don't believe this is a real service. I don't know why, but it seems so.... crazy that I just can't believe it's real. What is blogsitter? From their home page:

Are you a blogger? Do you face some no-internet-days, holidays or something else that keeps you from updating your precious blog? And you know that a blog without daily updates dies very fast? Don't worry any longer! blogsitter.net is the plattform for bloggers who need caring people to sit their blogs. Register and place your advertisment to search for a fitting blogsitter. Someone who has your skills in the field of your blog, someone who is trustful and eager to care about your blog.

Are people really so addicted to blogging that they can't go a day w/o a blog entry? I agree that it is a good idea to keep content fresh (although I'm not doing that here quite well), but come on! Any decent blog package should allow you to release entries in the future. I'd much rather write entries for later than trust anyone I didn't know well on my blog.

Is there anyone out there actually using this service? Or would even consider it? Thanks to the Zoid-ster for pointing this site out to me. As a reminder, folks can always send me suggestions for sites to review.
