BlogLOve: "Comedy Plus"

Some of you may remember a series of posts called "BlogLOve is..." on NoDirectOn (not: NoDirection) a long, long time ago. It was a fun spoof category inspired by the world famous "Love is..." cartoons, but we had it focussing on the blogosphere. After a while, the category got its' own weblog, but for NoDirectOn (as well as for: NoDirection), it has since become obsolete. Some of it may still be somewhere in the archives.

But our recent encounters with the phenomenon of Link Love Lists brought the word back to mind. So we're going to re-use it. For a new category on his blog where we will - each friday - put a 'lovable' blog up in the blogspotlight.

We will show a screenshot of it (with a url-link behind the picture, so click that and off you go!) and we will also say a few words about it, to make you curious and go and see for yourselves why we like this featured blog.

Thus we give the blog in the spot some 1-on-1 link love (and, hey, isn't that a whole lot nicer than a group swap?) and hopefully a little bit of extra visitors too. PLUS: we give our own visitors a good excuse to click away from NoDirectOn (and from: NoDirection). And we expect nothing in return.. Now isn't that cool? It's... BlogLOve!

The first blog that we like to feature here is Comedy Plus. It's a real fun blog, run by Sandee in California, and it is a daily source of good stuff. Cartoons, jokes, funny stories, it's all there! Sandee is a gifted and witty story teller and she knows how to make you laugh! Go visit Comedy Plus each day - you will soon not want to miss out on it anymore. But please come back to NoDirectOn (or to: NoDirection) and tell us how you liked it, will you?

Now you click that link or the screenshot and go!! Oh, and by the way, the one in the picture with the mug, that's Sandee. Remember to say hello to her for me!

Sandee,

This has certainly been a red-letter day for me. First I get my permalinks fixed and now this. I am floored and thankful at the same time. What a great idea too. I love it. Oh, I love Lyn to pieces too. Jos, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are all that and a bag of chips. How do you like my new avatar? It's the real me. Have a great evening. :)

That's a new expression for me, a red-letter day! Where does that come from? Taxes probably? We have a "blue envelope day" saying, in Dutch, meaning that the taxes have to be paid. I am assuming red-letter day is the opposite?
I like your new avatar, but where's the mug ? Lol, I have just explained my readers that look like the one on the screen shot with the mug and now you turn up all chique... I saw your Technorati went up immediately ;))

Hi Jos, Wow. Your ideas are fantastique. You are an innovative blogger, if i (ever) get that award, you will be 1st on that list!

Just being curious, is that wonderful dedication to my blog counted as BlogLOve too? :)

Hello Winston, I am glad you like it!
As for your question, let me answer this one as if I am a logical person, ok? LOL! Let me go through the options, here:
- If you are asking because you want to know if you have already passed your turn then the answer is "no, there will be other oportunities for eatyourmaths to shine again in the LinkLOve spotlight some other friday".
- If you are asking 'technically', then the answer is "yes, except it was not on a friday". hehehe
- And if you are asking 'emotionally', the answer is "BlogLOve is in the eye of the beholder", and I love your blog.

And now mr fong will go and complete his memes, ok? LOL!!!

Thanks for commenting, Winston!

Jos said...

Thank you, Ann! I knew you would like the idea! And Sandee's Comedy Plus is a very nice blog that I am sure my readers will appreciate. And as for Sandee: I totally agree with you, she's a great friend to have!

I went to Sandee's blog, and she was...

So funny that I rolled on my butt laughing. Her posts suit her title of including comedy. Wonderful choice.

Anyway...LOL, your answers are so funny, and a great lift to my spirits :D I'm so glad that you didn't post mine on a friday.. :P
