Blog Carnivals

September 6, 2006 by Lillie 

Have you discovered blog carnivals? I’ve discovered carnivals recently … and discovered how addictive they can become!

A blog carnival is a collection of posts on a particular theme from a number of different blogs. Many carnivals are ongoing, with new editions posted each week or month. Carnival hosts search to find great posts to share, and bloggers can submit posts from their own blogs.

There are carnivals on writers, religion, medicine, professions of all kinds, hobbies, business, sports, technology, arts and entertainment …. Think of a subject, and there are probably blogs about it, and if there are blogs about it, there’s probably a blog carnival.

Carnivals are a fun and convenient way to find blogs on subjects that interest you. I warn you, though, you can just plan to check out this week’s edition of your favorite blog carnival … and before you know it, you’ve clicked from blog to blog and read post after post!

      Glenn,

      The carnivals don’t seem to be as popular as they once were, or maybe I just haven’t been taking part. Maybe I take to do some more. I enjoyed it when I did.

    Have you noticed a difference in comments since you’ve been using Keyword Luv? I was considering installing it.

      Frank,

      I tend to get a lot of comments and have for quite a while. But I’ve also been a DoFollow blog with KeywordLuv who thanks commenters with a link every month for a good while. I suspect the number of comments I get is a combination of all those factors—and I hope my scintillating posts have something to do with it. :-)
