Blogapalooza: A huge success! Click to view source

It’s a task, trying to trackback how I discovered something via social media. I follow a modest hundred or so people on twitter, have a few hundred friends on the book, and then there are the bloggers in my rss feed. But I am pretty darn sure I found out about Blogapalooza via @Linda704.

Like I needed to find MORE blogs to read! But what can I say, there are some pretty good finds here and I’m glad I participated.

So what is Blogapalooza? It’s Robert Hruzek‘s baby over at Middle Zone Musings.  This year, it’s a group writing project called What I Learned From 2008, and participants were asked to create a list of our favourite blog posts, ones from our own blogs, 1 per month of 2008.

Here’s my What I Learned post. And that list you see at the bottom of this post? It is a list of the 128 bloggers who participated in this year’s event, organized alphabetically by first name.

    ,Hi Tracy
    What an absolutely delightful trove! Daniels, you are nothing short of an angel.
    thanks to you for giving information us.

    Thanks for the link, Tracy! Really appreciate it!

    It’s always a pleasure to participate in Robert’s WILF writing projects (which are the source of so much wisdom), and his Blogapaloozas are even more meaningful than his regular, monthly WILFs–if that’s possible!
