June 2009 Blog Chain

razibahmed · Jun 21, 2009

(I felt that I should open a new thread for this)
It seems that we are going to have a decent number of Participants. I am making the list of bloggers and blogs here who have submitted their blog url for the April 2009 Blog Chain:

Razib Ahmed: http://hobbyeconomist.blogspot.com/ --- Hobby Economist
Fokker Aeroplanbau: http://rightfarright.blogspot.com/ -- I'm Always Right, Far Right
Bettielee: http://farseeingfairytales.blogspot.com/ ---- Far Seeing Fairy Tales
Bsolah: http://www.benjaminsolah.com/blog ---- Benjamin Solah, Marxist Horror Writer
Anniemr: http://writerchicktalks.com/ --- Writer Chick Talks
Forbidden Snowflake: http://www.alleslinks.com/ ------ Delirious
Rosemerry: http://beyondtourism.wordpress.com/ --- Beyond Tourism: Florida's Yesteryear
Dnic: http://four-lettered-words.blogspot.com/ ---------- Four-Lettered Words
Lady Cat: http://www.randomwriterlythoughts.blogspot.com/ --- Random Writerly Thoughts
Truelyana: http://expressiveworld.com/ -- Expressive World
Tika: http://tikanewman.blogspot.com/ ---------- Tika Newman
Bill Ward: http://www.billwardwriter.com/ --- BillWardWriter.com
dancingandflying: http://madeofcarbon.blogspot.com/ ---- Made of Carbon

Have I missed anyone?

It will be a blog chain without any fixed theme. I will put the first post and the next in line would take something from my post and write his/her post. Then the chain would go on until the last participant.
We should try to comment in each and every post but I don’t think that it should be a mandatory rule.

bettielee · Jun 21, 2009

umm... but it says April?...

So this is the order we will go in? Cool beans...

dancingandflying · Jun 21, 2009

Yeah. You missed me.

razibahmed · Jun 21, 2009

Made of Carbon: madeofcarbon.blogspot.com is Added now in the list

razibahmed · Jun 21, 2009

I changed the title to June 2009 but it is still showing April. Sorry for the mistake.

DTKelly · Jun 21, 2009

Drat. Please remove me from the list. School just got busy. :/

bsolah · Jun 21, 2009

Sweet! Let's roll!

Lyra Jean · Jun 21, 2009

I love no theme blog chains. It seems less restrictive and works well for those people who have themed blogs, um like me.

dnic · Jun 21, 2009

No theme then? =] Cool. Who's starting first? - prepares to storm the blog -

Forbidden Snowflake · Jun 22, 2009

Great, I feel like it's only April anyways, so the title fits my mood

razibahmed · Jun 22, 2009

DTKelly deleted from the list.
Tomorrow, I will post first and then the blog chain will got under way. It is too hot in my city now. Rain should have become at least 1 week ago.

Question:
Are we supposed to put everyone's links (those participating) in the post? Like in an intro? For example: "Hi, we're doing a blog chain and the idea is and here is everyone involved" Or something like that? Or is it just between us, so to speak?

It is usually good etiquette to at least put a link of the person who posted before you and a link to poster after you. Every blog chain I've participated in I put the list at the end of my post. After all it is designed to get more readers. So my readers might check out your blog and your readers might check out mine. We both win.

PenDragon · Jun 23, 2009

razibahmed, take me out of the list if you don't mind. Bit busy at mo. Cheers.

razibahmed · Jun 23, 2009

Blogs of EFCollins and PenDragon deleted as per their requests. So, we are going to start from today.

razibahmed · Jun 23, 2009

I have uploaded my entry: http://hobbyeconomist.blogspot.com/2009/06/nature-and-urban-life-absolute-write.html

And also PMed Fokker Aeroplanbau

Fokker Aeroplanbau · Jun 23, 2009

Start from today? We have a baker's dozen but do we want more? I know someone is going to ask this so I'll just fire it out there: do we add more as more people show up? I think so, let us not close it off from the wider community - a unlimited blog chain sounds fairly fun.

Anyhow - I'll get to writing. I have sort of painted myself into a corner in which I can either A: post this or B: post a blog post regarding the Myth of Applied Tolerance. Heh, decisions, decisions - I'll go with this just because I've waited long enough for this to get going; hate to be the wet blanket that shuts it down!

Fokker Aeroplanbau · Jun 23, 2009

Okay, wrote it up.

http://rightfarright.blogspot.com/2009/06/blog-chain-absolute-write.html

Next up!

razibahmed · Jun 23, 2009

Fokker Aeroplanbau,
Have you sent a Private message to the next person (Bettielee )in the blog chain?

Got it sent off.

Thanks for the reminder!

bettielee · Jun 23, 2009

I have taken the topic and rolled it into my personal ... thing,

http://farseeingfairytales.blogspot.com/2009/06/aw-blog-chain.html

next....

bettielee · Jun 23, 2009

and pm sent to bsolah - looks like he's offline, and he's in Australia, I think. Should be sleeping, pro'lly!

bsolah · Jun 23, 2009

Will try to keep up and maybe post it today provided I can get away with reading the previous blogs at work. Bettielee, unfortunately it's hard to read your blog at work because your theme stands out so might have to quickly visit and copy and paste your post into a text editor or something to get away with it.

If I don't get to do it today, I'll do it tonight.

bettielee · Jun 23, 2009

Sorry. I am just terminally cute....

bsolah · Jun 23, 2009

It's fine. I wouldn't mind reading on the theme.

Except my workmates might find it weird for a male to reading a fairy site when he's meant to be doing spreadsheets.
