Happy Blog Day

August 31, 2008 · Comments

Blog Day 2008It’s Blog Day again. Every year, Nir Ofir reminds us to reach out and identify five blogs that you might not yet be reading. It’s his way of showing how wide a world it is and how interesting things can be out there in the blogosphere. So, here I am with my 5 Blog Day picks. You should find your own, too. Make sure you link back to Blogday.org with your post, and share your five new blog picks for this year.

  1. Crazed Mommy – Shash (rhymes with “gosh”) has quite an eclectic blog going here. It has a bit of something for everyone.
  2. Mark Salinas – Mark blogs about healthy eating and good living. I always find something new to consider with every post.
  3. Queen of Spain – Erin lives quite a life, and you can observe her perspective here. Warning: you won’t be a simple observer for long.
  4. Stretching Intervals – Grace Nikae is a professional pianist, but also someone taking strides into the social media world. With a blog and also a twitter account, Grace is someone fascinating to observe and get to know.
  5. Liz Strauss – what can I tell you about Liz? She’s a creative’s best muse. She’s someone to make business sense out of your business. She knows lots about community and blogging, and she’s worth your time.

So those are my five Blog Day Picks. What are yours? Who would you recommend for Blog Day? Be sure to post and link back to BlogDay.org so that Nir knows you’re playing along.

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

    I already have too blog RSS feeds to read but it is interesting to read your recommendations.

    Plus, I need to spend less time reading & more time writing! Less consumption & more production.
  • Cool picks. I posted for Blog Day 2008 as well, but I went far afield to find bloggers from different countries and walks of life, including bloggers from Africa, Argentina, India, Australia, and Belgium.

    Cheers!

    I saw your list Mark, very interesting! So much out there to read, not enough hours in the day.

    I like to discover new interesting persons, but often it can take a long time to filter the noise, so the Blog Day idea can be useful.
    It will be great to read and share multilanguage blogs or blogs written by persons from other countries to compare the visions and thoughts, find new ideas and become more united.
  • Happy Blog Day! I did not know such a day existed. )My new thing to learn for the day)

    I like your choice of blogs, very interesting, especially like Stretching Intervals since the piano is one of my favorite instruments.

    Thanks as also for another great post.
