The I-Follow List

Class, most of you're tucked in bed dreaming of blogging revenue, hotlinking and other crazy, far-fetched ideas while your diligent, blondalicious teacher is still working into the night. After receiving the green light confirmation email from Deborah of Fast Lane Transport to copy the latest list of the bloggers participating in the I-Follow Movement, I decided to go ahead and post the list tonight.

All of these bloggers below are participating. If your I-Follow blog is missing from this list and would like to have it added, you may leave your name in a comment and I'll add you to this list. Reference earlier posts if you don't know what I-Follow is.

Galactic Blogger Origins

Class, I'm often asked by my love slaves from whence I hail in the galaxy because of my oddball, goofy nature mixed with my insightful wisdom and packaged in a delectable body . So I thought I would share a bit of personal information here with you in reference to my galactic origins. But before getting into this juicy stuff, I am listing the types of bloggers and their galactic origins. You can easily identify them by the way they blog.

Serious Bloggers (tech bloggers, political bloggers, nerd/geek bloggers) mostly hail from Sirius. I'm serious! Some are from Saturn--the really depressing, dour bloggers.

Whiny Bloggers (despairing, sad bloggers, longing/aching bloggers and those with the pale pink blog sites where you can barely read the print and the color makes you want to puke!) come from the Far Side of the Moon. They are infant souls who were recently planted on Earth and are beginning to understand their long-prison sentence....err, life learning curve.

Bully Bloggers (macho bloggers, foul language bloggers, ranting bloggers, bragging bloggers, mean-spirited, critical bloggers) are the ones that were kicked off Mars long ago and exiled to Earth. They are slow learners! Sad to say. Their blogs easily identify their origins. The well-mannered Martians remain living underground on Mars and don't even want to know their blood-relatives! Long time no-see, and that's the way they prefer it.

Inspirational Bloggers (spiritual-subject bloggers, photobloggers, art bloggers, music bloggers, etc.) mostly come from Neptune with a smattering of them coming from the Blue Star.

Elite Bloggers (the good- ol boys -club bloggers, the misogynist bloggers, the egotistic all- about- me bloggers, some (but not all) of the Big Boy Bloggers) incarnate from Nibiru (if you want to be picky, some call it Hibiru), and specifically the Enlil branch.

Humor Bloggers (such as your Blondalicious Teacher, for one!) are a mixed-breed, and we come from all over the galaxy. Many of our parents were from different star systems who rebelled against their own parents wishes and intermarried, and thus we are strange hybrids who are very difficult bloggers to pin down to a specific group. We are the outsiders, and we prefer to remain this way --the better to thumb our noses and jest. However, under close inspection, you can see the overlay hovering in the aura of our blogs.

Crappy Bloggers (the blogs which are impossible to navigate, with jarring music, too much going on with their blogs, and they feel like seriously bad acid trips) are also infant souls who have yet to get their bearings and achieve organization and balance. Many of these bloggers congregate in MySpace. Most of them hail from Mercury with some Martians.

Beautiful Bloggers (the blogs which take your breath away with their design, images, words, insights, wisdom and generosity to link to others) naturally come from Venus.

Hungry Bloggers (those who post about food, recipes, restaurants, and such) come from the Earth. Yes, there are Earthlings who love their home planet and love to write about it's abundance and harvests.

Mommy Bloggers (those who blog about their families, children, pets and personal home life) are also a mixed bag. They come from all over, but are currently doing the 'mommy' gig and need the blogging outlet. This group is NOT to be messed with for they are a powerful force in the blogosphere. Oh yeh!

So if you've read this far and haven't skipped down to read the Juicy Part about my galactic origins, you're obviously a Pretty Da**** Smart Blogger! (Kiss-Kiss), and here is my brief lineage to make a very long story short and to eliminate all the dramatic twists and turns and 180's across time and space:

Lyran, Pleiadean, Arcturian, Venusian, Blue Star, and The Secret Super Nova which no one can talk about or else as it's totally off limits. So there you have it, Mr. "Humor-Blogs.com". Can you recognize yourself?

Blog-Blond Answers Your Emails

Listen Up Class! I am behind with my replies to your burning blog questions, and today I plan to nail the answers. What follows is the shortened questions minus the sender's name, praise, and adulation of your blondalicious teacher--just the meat of the question with my answer. I apologize I can't reply to all of your questions today as "blah blah blah" (insert whatever alibi you would like to hear from me in this space)! Perhaps you may learn something from these questions and answers which will then make you re-consider emailing me the same question, eh?
*********
Question: I've been shut-out by a group of bloggers who I once thought were my friends. I feel betrayed and want revenge. What can I do?

BB's Answer: Oh this is so simple! Blogs on Blogger and other blogging platforms are free, right? Simply start another blog and pose as another person with another blog which fits the same persuasion of your blog betrayers. Infiltrate their ranks. The time will come when you'll be able to get your revenge. Wait as patiently as a cat does for a mouse. HOWEVER, don't blog from your same computer as this will be a give-away as your IP address is trackable, and they might catch on to you. Use a friend's computer or, if necessary, go to an internet cafe. Keep a fairly low profile until you find the perfect moment to pounce.

Question: Someone asked me to reciprocate links with them, and I did so. Then this woman never got around to adding my link after several months even though I reminded her. I've finally taken her link down, and now she is linking up to all my friends. Do I tell my blogging friends about her lack of integrity with me?

BB Answer: It depends upon what this woman is offering your friends and how close you are to your friends. If you're super tight with them, then I'd say go ahead and let them know what a s*** she's been to you. If they still want to link and befriend this blogger, take your friends links down as well, or at the very least, don't give them any comment love...or make really stupid comments on their posts. You don't need friends like that. On the other hand, if they're just your typical meme blogging group of acquaintances making the rounds looking for blogs with Mr. Linky's or s**cking-up to who they think are the top bloggers, don't even bother telling them. Just move on! There ARE bloggers with integrity even though they are MUCH harder to locate. Once again, I remind you of one of Blog-Blond's cardinal rules. Keep the memory of the elephant which never forgets. I like to switch around the famous Groucho Marx quote, "I'd never join a club that would allow a person like me to become a member." Blog-Blond's quote is, "I'll happily club the member of any person allowing me to join them." (Wink!)

Question: I can't see any purpose for the social contacts, twitters, Second Lives, memes, groups, and dumb comments. I just don't get it.

BB's Answer: Welcome to Blog Harsh Truth 101. The blogosphere is mostly a bunch of narcissists preening in the Blog Hall of Mirrors. Your bafflement is only the beginning of Harsh Truths you will discover as you venture deeper into the blogosphere, but the engagement with these others will toughen you up for the larger multiverse which is preparing to install itself upon your hard drive.

Is Mr. Linky Too Girly For Guys?

Class: Listen Up to your Blondalicious Teacher! Before the weekend blur becomes completely blurred, I wish for you to reflect on "Mr. Linky". You must have noticed the Mr. Linky widget at the bottom of many posts, especially ones participating in memes, right? The Mr. Linky protocol goes like this: after reading a post, you (the reader!) add your name and blog url to the linky widget and then make a comment. Some people abuse poor Mr. Linky which makes some bloggers quite steamed. Why? The %$#& add their link and then don't comment. Oh, the horrors!

HOWEVER, what I've observed as I've been rocking the blogosphere is Mr. Linky RARELY ever shows up on the blogs of men, even those who participate in memes. The absence of Mr. Linky on men's blogs prompted me to wonder why and enter into a deep philosophical conversation with myself about this mystifying- missing- mr- linky-on-men's-blogs.

Me One: Well, first of all--consider the Freudian connotation!

Me Two: And what about the words themselves: linky and mister? It rhymes with dinky. And blinky. And pinky. And kinky. And...

Me One: Enough rhyming already! Let's get serious here! I've been debating whether to add Mr. Linky, but I'm kinda suspicious of it.

Me Two: As well you should--does it measure UP? Maybe men bloggers are clued in? I've researched all the main male blog teachers, and I can't find even a reference to it in their posts.

Me One: Or possibly they may suspect Mr. Linky as being too girly.

Me Two: So is the "Venus & Mars" dynamic revealing itself even with widgets?

Me One: Perhaps Mr. Humor-Blogs and my class might might wish to elucidate their teacher about this matter before it gets filed in the Pitiful- Post-Piffle Files (P.P.P. files). Let's hear from you: Is Mr. Linky Too Girly For Guys?

I'm Back With More Blog Awards!

Can you believe it? I haven't posted in ages because I fell down the deep rabbit hole of BLOGS! And what a very deep hole it is! One blog led to another blog and then to another--a maze of ever more beguiling blogs offering amazing information, education, insights, and humor! Climbing out of this blog-hole (worse by far than any man hole!)has taken me like forever--as you may have noticed--then again, maybe not. You've probably been very naughty in my absence as I would expect that from you. You have to be naughty for me, right? In any event, I have lots to share with you today.

Before I begin anew with another installment of Blog-Blond Best of Blogs Awards, I want to point out two nifty items in my sidebar. Check out the phone. Plusmo is the place to go if you want one of your own. This way others can download your blog right on their cell.

The second item I added is Sonific. I compared it to Best Audio Codes, and I prefer Sonific. I found an extremely racy song which I deliberated adding to this blog but finally decided against--I don't want ya'll to get the wrong idea about your blondalicious teacher! Wink!

Since there are SOOOOO many fabulous blogs which deserve an award, I have decided to do more than two installments of blog awards. By the way, did you vote on the 2007 Bloggies? I did, but it wasn't easy for me because I felt so many OTHER deserving blogs weren't even listed! I much prefer my awards, and I hope you do to. So listen up! Here they are:

Best Sensual Banquet Blog (one word of warning--be very blog hungry before you go here!):

Crossroads Dispatches

Best Crumb-Leaver and Spicy Get-Around-Gal Blog: Serenity Quest

Best Why Didn't I Think Of That First Blog!: Bestest Blog Of All Time

Best Good Ol Boy With a Young Spirit Blog: Mushys Moochings

Best Snarky Celebrity Blog: Best Week Ever

Best Satire Blog: The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs

Best Sardine Blog: 2000 Bloggers

Best Nerd News Blog: Slashdot

Best Abandoned Blog: Abandoned Blog

There you have it for today. I'll be back with more! I'm off to take a long bubble bath to wash the blog hole away, ya know? And yes, I will have a martini. Oh yeh!
