Viva la blog-olution!

As my loyal readers may recall, last year I participated in National Blog Posting Month (aka NaBloPoMo), in which I blogged every single day in November. Well, that time is fast approaching and I'm doing it again!

This time I'm even donating a prize for the drawing at the end of the month, in which all the names of folks who posted every single day successfully are entered. I'm donating a Pro Flickr account (a $25 value), which allows you to post an unlimited amount of photos on Flickr. I puffy heart Flickr. It makes posting photos to my blog so easy.

I encourage all my fellow bloggers to join the fun! (The blogging part, that is. Feel free to contribute to the drawing, too.) Posting 30 days in a row is not necessarily the easiest thing to do, but it definitely makes you more aware of the blog-worthy material (or lack thereof) in your day to day life. You may also find more great bloggers along the way.

You can sign up to participate here, where you'll be required to create an account on Ning.com in order to join the NaBloPoMo group/social network. Do you know about Ning.com? It's a site that allows you to start your own social network. Maybe I should start one for left-handed half-Filipinas married to wonderful men named Brent. Party of one, please.

So who's with me during NaBloPoMo? Who's taking the challenge? If you join, be sure to add me as your friend on Ning.

  1. PARTY OF ONE PLEASE. Ha! Until your ARCH NEMESIS "Panette" shows up. She too is a left-handed half-Filipinas married to wonderful men named Brent...but EVIL.

  2. Hmm. Intriguing. I don't know if I can take the pressure, although I do post pretty regularly as it is.

  3. I did it last year and it was fun. I can see it going a couple of ways though. The good way would be a kick in the butt to get me blogging regularly again. I'm not sure I'm at a place where I can take the pressure though and would probably just cheat by uploading lots of crappy cell phone photos! Good luck!

  7. I'd love to participate but seeing as I'm traveling to NY for work in November, it will hard to get to my blog. Dammit! I suck! I'll have fun reading yours though! :)

    oh, and I'm serious...we are ON for bread pudding when I'm back. We'll set a date and time when I'm back! Don't forget!

  15. This sounds like it could be fun. I typically blog 5-6 days a week as it is.

  16. I wish you luck. I personally know that's a goal I wouldn't achieve, so I won't kid myself.

  21. I'm going to give it a try. 30 days. Surely I can do it for 30 days. Best way to form a habit, right?

  23. Blogging everyday is so hard! Perhaps next year when I am a seasoned blogger I'll join you. For now, I'll enjoy reading your daily November blogs :)

  24. Okay, am I an idiot? I went to your page and couldn't figure out how to add you as my friend. I'm littlemrs on there.
