The 205th edition of the longest running internet blog carnival, the well known Carnival of the Vanities appears at Andrew Ian Dodge's eclectic political blog known as Dodgeblogium.
Carnival of the Vanities has a new home at Zeuswood and Stingflower's dedicated to all things carnival blog, appropriately titled First Carnival.
Carnival of the Vanities participants and hosts should take note that there are new submission guidelines in place for all future Carnivals.
Carnival of the Vanities is the original collection of blog postings, assembling some of the best and wide ranging bloggers on the internet.
This week's Carnival of the Vanities entries include politics, literature, science, humour, technology, business, and an iPod-wielding Cthulhu.
I have an entry in this week's Carnival of the Vanities as well.
My post is titled "Managing With Aloha by Rosa Say - Book review" where I discuss how the timeless wisdom of Hawaii, and its spirit of Aloha, are the values that author Rosa Say recommends for your business, in her landmark Managing with Aloha Bringing Hawaii's Universal Values to the Art of Business. Ageless themes of unconditional love for others, for giving of yourself, and sharing what you possess, are only a few of the eternal values expressed in the book.
Carnival of the Vanities needs hosts for upcoming editions. As a blogger, there is no one better qualified to host the Carnival of the Vanities than you!
Here is the e-mail address so you can become a host:
Contact: host [at] firstcarnival [dot] com
To participate in the Carnival of the Vanities or any of the other blog carnivals, one of the easiest techniques is to use the all inclusive carnival entry form at The Conservative Cat.
Another participation option is to simply e-mail your entry to the new e-mail address:
cotvmail -at- gmail -dot- com
As I suggest elsewhere, hosting and contributing to the various internet blog carnivals is a great promotional idea for your blog.
When you send an entry to Carnival of the Vanities, or any of the many internet blog Carnivals, don't forget to link to the hosted edition. It's not only common courtesy, but helps to increase visitor traffic for all entrants. It also shows your appreciation of the hard work done by the host in preparing the post. Everyone shares in the benefits of the expanded Carnival readership. Show the Carnival some linky love.
Next week's edition of Carnival of the Vanities appears at a location awaiting official confirmation.
In the meantime, head on over to the Dodgeblogium hosting of Carnival of the Vanities and enjoy the posts on offer.
You will almost certainly be introduced to some great new and interesting blogs.
