Find your blog carnival

| 2 Comments | No TrackBacks
"FIND your carnival, and get your blog." This one-liner comes from a service ca lled, er, Blog C arnival. Simply put, a blog carnival is a collection of top blog postings o n different topics. A blog called "All My Eye" als o provides this definition:
Blog Carnivals attempt to provide a weekly or monthly summary of ke y postings in a particular blogging community or topic. The source media is dif ferent (blogs versus mailing lists) but the editorial process and end results a re essentially the same: a regular digest of important scholarly or technical d iscussions. Carole Anne Meyer has described Blog Carnivals as secondary publishing reinvented.
Topics can vary. All My Eye found scholarly blog carnivals, which focused on th e science community, for instance. A blog carnival is a blog community or network with a twist. This new "approach " hopes to help you find more relevant information from the virtual haystack we call the blogosphere. But from time to time, you will still find some blogs re gurgitating second-hand information. So be careful. Blog on!

this one does sound rather interesting. i do wonder though if it's worth a try.

and is this something like the pinoyblog? or is it different?

So it can help drive traffic to your site or blog, huh? Hmm...

I'm getting skeptic of this because of the volume (not "number", because it's "
hard to count") of spammers that visit your site or blog and dump useless and i
rrelevant data. :/

I traced them back to these "blog carnivals". Meh.
