Blogger Idol
To correspond with the start of a new American Idol series, Darren of LivingRoom is starting Blogger Idol. I'm signed up to participate along with about 55 75 other bloggers.

Each Sunday (Australian time, it will be Saturday evening here EST) Darren will announce a theme for the week. We have three days to work that theme into a blog post. We post the entry in our own blog and leave a link in Darren's blog so we can all read what each other wrote.

The prize? Darren says:

"There won't be any formal or central 'judging' process. What you do from this point is up to each person. You may just wish to read each entry or you might want to nominate your favorite post/s on your own blog. There is no overall winner, but instead its about finding and showcasing new blogs, swapping ideas on a common theme and getting your own voice heard by a few new people."

Sounds like the perfect replacement to the Friday Five. And Darren won't be rude to us. (See January 11 post to learn about the rude Friday Five.)

Wonderful introvert fun!
