Weekly Geeks 2009 #2 - What it means to be a Weekly Geek

This week's Weekly Geek Question asks what it means to be a Weekly Geek.

I guess I qualify to be a Weekly Geek because I am really addicted to blogging. I promised myself at the beginning of this year that I would try to cut down to one daily post. Last year I posted 456 times in 365 days. But instead of being more restrained, it looks to me as if I am becoming more addicted. This will be the 28th post for January already.

What I value about Weekly Geeks is the opportunity to browse the blogs of others, to look at how their blogs are constructed, what their graphics look like, what challenges they have taken up. I like the way it brings a community of bloggers together. From them I get ideas of gadgets/widgets I could add to mine, new topics to blog about, new books to look out for.

  6. It really is great to find new blogs and that is just one of the things WG has "done for me". I think I found your blog through Marg's blog which I found doing a google search for "book blogs" and I know I found WG either through one of your blogs or through one of the blogs you link to.....As long as you find just one great blog, the sky's suddenly the limit.
