Today is the third World Blog Day, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to talk, once again, about my favourite singer and one of my favourite role models: Clay Aiken. Here's what the organizers/initiators of this Day say about it:What is BlogDay?
BlogDay was created with the belief that bloggers should have one day dedicated to getting to know other bloggers from other countries and areas of interest. On that day Bloggers will recommend other blogs to their blog visitors. With the goal in mind, on this day every blogger will post a recommendation of 5 new blogs. This way, all blog readers will find themselves leaping around and discovering new, previously unknown blogs.
Now, I get that the idea is to get to know five previously unknown (to onesself) bloggers. I will partially do that, but I also can't resist sharing some of my current favourite Clay blogs, because they're just so very good.
Here's what is suggested to do, for those of you who want to join in the fun and blog today (whether about Clay or not):
BlogDay posting instructions:
1. Find 5 new Blogs that you find interesting
2. Notify the 5 bloggers that you are recommending them as part of BlogDay 2007
3. Write a short description of the Blogs and place a link to the recommended Blogs
4. Post the BlogDay Post (on August 31st) and
5. Add the BlogDay tag using this link: http://technorati.com/tag/BlogDay2007 and a link to the BlogDay web site at http://www.blogday.org
Here are the 5 blogs I have chosen to share with you. Enjoy!
My #1 source of information, links, clack and everything else on Clay - I highly recommend it. Sometimes I think the gals at CDD know what Clay's up to before he does himself! Last year, Clay's Daily Double was named the Best Clay Aiken Website 2006 by the Clammy Awards, a well-deserved recognition.
2. The NeutralZone (new to me - I like what I've read)
The NeutralZone is a gathering place to discuss Clay Aiken’s music, and other topics of interest, with common sense and common decency. We would like posters to be able to share ideas and opinions, both positive and negative.
I like that this blogger has a very respectful way of allowing dissent on anything, including anything-Clay. I of course love Clay, but he is also a human being, not perfect, so I think it is courageous of this blogger to open up their blog to different ideas and opinions, while clearly stating that disrespect will not be allowed.
3. Excuse Me While I Take A Moment
Well, who in the online Clay fandom doesn't know Jemock, author of this blog? This fan has a quick wit, an incredible sense of humour and she candidly shares her thoughts about Our Man. If you can read one of her posts without smiling - or more like it, cracking up hysterically - well... I wouldn't know what to say to you!
4. WebWeaver's World (I've visited before, but clearly not often enough)
A blog about my passions. May include some or all of the following: geek stuff (web design & development, CSS, accessibility, usability), environmental activism, my adopted home of New Zealand ('cos it's so totally wonderful), international & green politics (rants from a left-wing perspective), gardening, cats, literature, rugby, and my Teevy boyfriend, Clay Aiken.
I enjoy the diversity of blogging subjects of this blogger. She integrates her passion for Clay into different aspects of her life, and she has many interests - check her out.
5. All That Is Clay Aiken - The Voice, The Heart, The Man
Why this blog? Just because I like it. The blogger enjoys Clay and posts often - which is a good thing in the coming-and-going world of blogging where some remain dormant for years...
So go check out some Clay fan blogs! There are lots out there! Enjoy. And happy Blog Day 2007!
