BlogDay 2006 is coming soon!
I first heard about BlogDay, last year, when someone actually picked my blog to highlight. I had just started my blog and it was a nice way to introduce me to the other foodbloggers.
BlogDay for 2006 --August 31 -- is fast approaching, and I'm excited to be able to participate in it this year. There are many new blogs and this is a great opportunity to finding out about them.
Here's a little info about the BlogDay concept:
About BlogDay:
BlogDay was initiated with the belief that bloggers should have one day which will be dedicated to know other bloggers, from other countries or areas of interests. In that day Bloggers will recommend about them to their Blog visitors.
What Will Happen on BlogDay:
In one long moment on August 31, bloggers from all over the world will post a recommendation of 5 new Blogs -- preferably, Blogs different from their own culture, point of view and attitude. On this day, blog surfers will find themselves leaping and discovering new, unknown Blogs, celebrating the discovery of new people and new bloggers.
BlogDay posting instructions:
1. Find 5 new Blogs that you find interesting.
2. Notify the 5 bloggers that you are recommending on them on BlogDay 2006
3. Write a short description of the Blogs and place a a link to the recommended Blogs
4. Post the BlogDay Post (on August 31) and
5. Add the BlogDay tag using this link: http://technorati.com/tag/BlogDay2006 and a link to BlogDay web site at http://www.blogday.org
Fellow Bloggers, circle the date August 31, 2006 on your calendar. Then, come join me celebrate BlogDay!

Glad you posted about this. I didn't know about it!
I didn't know about this either. Fantastic idea. Thanks Paz!
What a great idea!!
sounds like fun paz!
Hi Everyone: Yes, it's a pretty cool idea. Hope you're all able to participate in it. ;-)
Paz
Great idea...to promote a multi cultural society...Let us bring the world together with our blogs!!
Oooh this sounds like fun, I am on to it!
So Paz, when you mean 5 new food bloggers, do you mean 5 brand new to food blogging or just 5 that are new to you?
Thanks.
Hi Paz,
How are you?
It sounds fun and exciting! I need to start hunting and blogging around to meet new bloggers.
You take care okay!

Hi IndianaDoc! It is a great idea, isn't it! ;-)
Hi JenJen: That's 5 blogs new to you: I'm sure some will be new bloggers.
Hey there, Tin: Nice to see you here. Love the new pic!
Paz
p.s. JenJen: If you've been reading the blogs for a while, that fine too but they must be relatively new to you. Something that you've discovered in recent times.
Paz
Thanks for clarifying this Paz, I can't wait.
Glad you'll be participating, Jenjen!
Paz
What a great event!!
Glad you think so, Pam! Hope you'll be able to join in!
Paz
Count me in Paz! Great idea.
the way i saw/see it is highlighting blogs that would be new to other people. If they were new to me as well, I wouldn't be sure they would be worth recomending yet...
You've got a point, Sam. Well, I suppose new to the reader or new to me, after I recommend the blog, in the end the reader will decide whether s/he wants to continue reading it. I'll keep your point in mind for next year. ;-)
Thanks for sharing it.
Paz
