International Blog Day
I admit it, I am a little late. The International Blog Day was August 31st but I was engaged with so many events that day that I could not celebrate one more thing.
I owe Teo all the information I have about this day. What you basically have to do is link to five blogs you like and read often, and write a little about them. It’s a move to promote your favorite blogs or blogs you think deserve to be read.
My list:
This is Teo’s blog, he’s an Italian chef in Parma. He runs a game every now and then on his blog, asking his readers to translate a recipe he posts in a foreign language. I got tipped about this by Topozozo (I recommend Topozozo as well – great guy and a great friend) , and I miraculously won something for the first time in my life! Look here for details.
2- Natalie Dee: Huffing it up, every weekday.
This is one of the most creative sites/blogs I have ever come across. Natalie Dee adds one drawing a day,and her drawings are simple but impressive. She has a blog section in the site as well. You must visit Natalie Dee.
3- Alb Sayed
A brilliant blog by an Egyptian living in the US. This is a great moderate voice that we need to hear more often. Alb Sayed does not like exposure, but this is not entirely about what he likes, now is it? I recommend his blog to everyone. His views make sense and make you think.
A Karaki blog that is also moderate, reasonable, and speaks to your mind. I enjoy the Black Iris tremendously and I have no doubt you will.
As announced “A Compendium of Sorts”, I adore this blog. The design and theme are engaging, and the pictures are beyond captivating.
One last thing remains to be said about celebrating this International Blog Day, you need to send an e-mail to each author of each blog you list and to notify them. I think this is a good idea. I received an e-mail this morning from Deb, who lives in Israel and has just linked to my blog. Fun, no?
Thank you Tololy. It’s flattering really, now I have to live up to this "brilliant blog" reputation.
