Pay Very Close Attention

I shall only say this once...yeah, right. Who am I kidding?! I rarely say anything once...but I'd like to think that what I'm saying is actually semi-important enough for you to pay attention the first time. So here goes:

It seems as though there are lots of people that are reading blogs these days. An even larger number of those are writing them! & unlike computers that tend to not care what people think, there are actual human beings on the other end of those blogs who do happen to care; they have feelings and emotions and everything! So where am I going with this?

There's this cool chick that had a great idea & wanted to pass the word about it & I happen to think it's pretty groovy. It's like this - We're in a recession, right? That's no secret. Well, what better to do when you can't afford to spend any money than to blog about how annoyed you are that your favorite store is bombarding you with coupons and sales NOOoOOOOOoOOooOOoW!? Okay, not really to blog about that, necessarily, but to blog in general. Okay, maybe not blog at all, but to READ those that are! So here's the challenge part...so simple...so easy...if we could only be paid for it (oh wait, some of us can!):

You read my blog. You click on the cute little piggy bank "Blog the Recession" logo to the right. You go to another blogger's site. You click on another piggy & continue on (reading or not) until you can't stand it any longer. You do this as often as you can, clicking on every piggy you can find. Also, some of the blogger's past blog links. Whatever you can click on, well, you click to your heart's content! =)

For those that have ad generated revenue, it will help them financially. For those like me, without the ads, well, we'd appreciate the "stats" and comments! Anything you can type, 'nice blog,' 'I concur,' 'Your dinner is served,' is appreciated. But please, refrain from being negative. Show some love this August!!!

Are you in?
