Blogger's Pick
 
Blogger's Pick.

Has this ever happened to you?
You come up with something fairly interesting and spend an hour or so writing it up, injecting witty comments, double-checking your spelling, rewording awkward sentences....
You finally feel it's finished, and so you hit "submit." You sit back and look at your brilliant Menewsha Blog entry.

Now what?

Hours go by... days... weeks....
No one reads or responds to your genius entry. You could try sticking a link in your signature, but when has that ever worked?
You sigh and realize that your blog will probably never be read.
Oh well....


No more!
Now things are going to be different!
Every week, I'm going to pick out a particularly great blog entry and feature it here!
That's right: blogs are going to be getting some attention now!


"But I don't blog!"
No prob. You can also nominate someone else's blog.
Or maybe you blog on another site, but not Menewsha? While you can't nominate off-site blogs, you can simply copy/paste your off-site blog entry into a Menewsha Blog, and submit it that way.

I gave her a few more coins and she kept wishing for the same thing, because that's all she wanted.

[size=5][color=#66CC00][b]Check out my blog, Cherry![/b][/color][/size]
Your name: (What you want to be called, not your full screenname. I know that, silly.)
Link to blog entry:
What your entry is about:
Your entry is awesome because:

Be Picked:
  • Write about something that is interesting to more people than just you (I.E. A dry commentary of the dog next door = good. How your best friend cheated on her boyfriend = not good. Unless you make it funny)
  • Make it legible. (No chatspeak, no horrible grammar and spelling. A few mistakes are okay, but if you want us to read your entry, make it... y'know... readable.)
  • Make it funny. (Entries that aren't funny can win, too. Not every winner will be a Seinfeld-worthy commentary on Chinese food. But we wouldn't mind a few of those.)
  • Make it widely enjoyable. (Some of us may love your explanation of why McCain should be president, or why gay marriage should be legal. But not everyone! Keep the topic light.)
  • If you do all this and I like your entry, you'll see your blog get featured here on Monday

Obey:
  • Follow the ToS. (Durr.)
  • Don't get mad. (If you didn't get picked, if you don't like the winner, if you don't like an entry, if your farts don't smell good today, etc.)
  • Get glad. (Be nice. :D)

Aww, Looks like I'm out xD
Good idea for a thread though.

Cherry Who? 07-19-2008 09:37 PM

Yeah, I don't think your 1337 entry quite qualifies. XD
But if you have other entries that you'd like to submit, feel free to. :D It doesn't have to be your most recent.
And thanks~

Steve the Garden Hose 07-19-2008 09:38 PM

Nah, it's fine ;P
I'm too lazy xDD

Cherry Who? 07-19-2008 09:42 PM

Pff, fine, be that way. :P
I'll just have to read your blogs later on myself. MAKE ME DO ALL THE HARD WORK! >o

Steve the Garden Hose 07-19-2008 09:44 PM

NOES.
I'll put passwords on them D:<
And this time it WON'T be "Steveisawesome" OR "Steveisgreat"
D:<

Jennifer 07-19-2008 09:45 PM

What about my latest entry? I mean, it's kind of cool, right? :lol: It doesn't talk about my dog, haha. But it's pretty much a fairytale. ;) Fairytales don't qualify, do they? D;' luls~

Anyways, nice idea for a thread! I think it's great! :)

Cherry Who? 07-19-2008 10:45 PM

Jen - I don't know, I haven't read it. ^^ Post a link using the form and I'll look at it. :D

Steve - "Hosesrule"?

Jennifer 07-19-2008 10:56 PM

Nah, I was just playing around. My blog really isn't that interesting, lol. :lol:

Easther_Bunni 07-19-2008 10:58 PM

Too bad I don't have a blog. ;) I'll enjoy reading the featured entires though.

clock 07-19-2008 11:05 PM


Interesting. x3
I'm tempted to make a long, in-depth blog about Kenta-kun, aka the colonel from KFC.

Cherry Who? 07-19-2008 11:12 PM

Jen - No, no, don't be so hard on yourself! Just go ahead and post it - what do you have to lose?

Easther - Well, you can take this as inspiration to start one! They're free.

Clock - By all means, do so. XD

Easther_Bunni 07-19-2008 11:41 PM

Mayeb I will start one, if I can think of something to write about. I've never used my journals on other sites much though.

clock 07-19-2008 11:42 PM


All right, it's done. And I'm totally serious. xD

Cherry Who? 07-20-2008 12:19 AM

Easther - Well, you don't have to write something just this second. ^^

Clock - That's good. XD

Cherry Who? 07-22-2008 04:20 AM

Our winner for this week is clock! :D
Granted, it was the only entry, but I still like it. XD

Intoxicate 07-22-2008 04:34 AM

I don't even have a blog, but it's an interesting idea.
Hmm.
