Bloggiesta Mini-Challenge


Hello fellow bloggers!

During the Bloggiesta, Kate from Neverending Shelf and I are hosting a mini-challenge involving our new brain-child!

The Bloggie Cult is a discussion board where bloggers can discuss blogging issues, tips and tricks, and get general information. We also have a mentor/mentee section where you can take a younger blogger under your wing or you can ask to have a mentor if your blog is fairly new.

The first thing you need to do to complete this challenge is to register for the boards.

Because we're focusing on the community of blogging, you have to do one of the three things below to complete the challenge. If you do all of them - kudos!

1. Post something tip and trickish on the board to share with other blogger - like maybe share an interesting website you have found that helps with HTML.

or

2. Leave a piece of blogging advice in the Mentoring Program section.

or

3. Join the mentoring program as a mentor or mentee.


When you have completed one of those three things, just leave a comment here with your Username that you used on the board and which one you completed. :)

Make sure you've been over to Maw Books Blog to sign up for the Bloggiesta! Ole!

    I just joined the Bloggie Cult-as cococroissants-I have asked for mentoring help.

    The technical part to blogging just boggles me-codes, computer stuff-I struggle with it-It will be good for me to learn from someone who has knowledge.

    Thank you for this.

    Okay Kristen, I signed up! I think this is a great idea and hopefully someone will be willing to help me out. Because believe it or not, I signed up as a mentee! I'm just too new to all of this, but we'll see. Maybe soon I can help someone else. Thanks again!
