Summer Blog Challenge, Take Two

It is time, once again, for the challenge of 31 days of non-stop blogging.

Without the distraction of an impending baby and a fruitless job search, can I continue to pump out 150 words per day, at minimum? Will I run out of things to say? Can I even hope to compete for the word-count title against such verbal diarrhetics as Cliff of peerpressureworks.com? Can I hope to say anything as self-revealing and profound as James of feelingsofwhite.com? Will James even participate? I’m not sure. What I am sure of is that, come August 3, it is back ON. And by ON, I mean on this blog, and at least peerpressureworks.com. And if peer pressure works, and I know that it does, there will be more than just we two.

Are you a blogger who has noticed cobwebs growing in the Add New text area? Have your followers been hounding you for updates?

Are you someone who has recently thought of blogging, but isn’t sure how to go about it?

Are you someone who has a lot to say but has no outlet?

If any of these apply, the Summer Blogging Challenge is definitely for you.

Heck, if you have an internet connection and a functioning knowledge of some written language, the Summer Blogging Challenge is for you.

Don’t hold back, jump right in. It’s only one post a day. 150 words. And you’ll get notoriety.

And Awesome Points.

If you are interested in joining in on the summer blogging challenge, comment on this entry, or the similarly themed entry at peerpressureworks.com and let us know: a) your name, b) your blog address

Good luck, and may the most dedicated (or just wordy) of us see it through to the end.

    While I never participate in these things, I love the idea.

    Good work. Liam.

    PS: No one can hope to compete with Cliff’s verbosity.

    Hey, there’s a little Bisonweb logo at the bottom. I hadn’t noticed it before.

    Awesome.

    I’d never noticed that, either…I suspect he just now added it to mess with us somehow.

    Looking forward to babbling incessantly. You know…more than usual.

    I’m in.

  6. Shaun, on July 22nd, 2010 at 2:28 pm Said:

    Cliff, your comments on your blog require a log in eh? No regular Name/Mail/Website eh?

  7. Cliff Riseborough, on July 22nd, 2010 at 4:44 pm Said:

    You can post as a guest without having to log in (just need to leave your email). Or you can do what Liam does and use your Twitter login. Or Yahoo. Or OpenID.

    I’m in. I will guarantee that I’ll resort to talking about baby poo and breastfeeding at least a couple of times.

  9. Tammy, on July 22nd, 2010 at 6:09 pm Said:

    Maybe I will give it a try. I don’t really have a blog but I can start one up. I am pretty chatty in person so I will channel that into text. I really enjoy reading everyone’s posts on all kinds of topics. Count me in.

  10. Tammy, on July 22nd, 2010 at 6:55 pm Said:

    OK, I have a blog spot and am ready to go. Here I am –

    As I am using up the last of my awesome points I earned last year I will begrudgingly participate again until I find a more renewable source of them. Looking back at my blog the last post was just before Micah was born, looks like I should have a good amount of back-material to draw from. I’m sure I could come up with at least a few DIY-farm posts.

  12. Shaun, on July 23rd, 2010 at 3:45 pm Said:

    I’m excited to read about the DIY Farm. Great project that is bound to have A LOT of material. Cut thumbs and all… oh wait that had NOTHING to do with farming at all…

    The bison at the bottom of the screen was an attempt to provide a non-transparent image so that when I linked to the posts in facebook, the picture wouldn’t be all black.

    That experiment failed miserably, so I left it on the bottom to remind myself that Facebook sucks.

  14. Cliff Riseborough, on July 24th, 2010 at 3:29 pm Said:

    You need a visual reminder that Facebook sucks? Just ask me for the truth about that demonic platform whenever you need a reminder.

    a) James b) feelingsofwhite.com c) I’m psyched!!! d) can I trade in awesome points for cool prizes? like more sleep?

    Update: The non-transparent image for facebook now works just fine.

    I’m sure you all care.
