It looks obvious

Nir Ofir presenting blog day 2006 :

BlogDay was initiated with the belief that bloggers should have one day which will be dedicated to know other bloggers, from other countries or areas of interests. In that day Bloggers will recommend about them to their Blog visitors. What will happen on BlogDay?

In one long moment In August 31st, bloggers from all over the world will post a recommendation of 5 new Blogs, Preferably, Blogs different from their own culture, point of view and attitude. On this day, blog surfers will find themselves leaping and discovering new, unknown Blogs, celebrating the discovery of new people and new bloggers.

To be honest I’m pretty skeptical about the whole idea. Aren’t we linking and connecting throughout the year? How much blog promotions do we really need, and how much exposure blogs will receive as a result of this day?

However this seems to be mainly harmless and I marked it in my calendar.
