Blog Day 2007

August 31, 2007 by Lillie 

Today is Blog Day 2007. Participating bloggers are asked to select and introduce five new blogs, preferably of different locations, cultures, or interests.

Here are five of my favorite blogs from far-away places – far away to me anyway:

Acquire Wisdom and Live with Passion – motivational quotes and inspiration from Sam Chan of Malaysia

The Case of the Missing Family – online genealogical mystery set in Britain from Thomas Hamburger, Jr.

Circular Communication – communication about communication that flows in two directions from Jan in Denmark (correction: Jan was born and raised in Denmark but now lives in southern Germany)

eWritings – online public relations from Mihaela Lica, a Romanian currently living in Germany

A Place for All Home Office Women – information and resources for home office women from Doris Chua of Kuala Lumpur

And a bonus from far, far away:

Every Day Should Be Christmas – Christmas all year long from Santa Claus himself, all the way from the North Pole

Thanks for thinking about me for this, Lillie.

I love your new design btw. Definitely worth the effort as it is so much more welcoming than the old one. As I saw it the first time I was amazed of the difference it made when I visit.

PS: Born and raised in Denmark I am actually living in southern Germany currently, but since that has nothing to do with my blogging that’s trivial really.

Thanks for pointing out where you live, Jan. The only reason for mentioning your location is that one of the reasons for Blog Day is to connect people around the world, so I wanted to recommend bloggers from different places.

I’m glad you like the new theme.

Laura,
I read about somewhere awhile back and put it in my Google notebook so I wouldn’t forget.
