First off, congratulations to "Bob Smith" (
About the Web (and other stuff)) and Gen Weyh (
Memories of Time that I Treasure), who are this week's JOTW winners!

Drop on by and visit them, peeples!

It seems that the advertising blogs are still problematic. Looking at the
Journal Community page, I see more of these blogs in the
New Bloggers section have pushed out whatever real blogs may have been started. It's too bad there's no way to deal with this; initiating some kind of waiting period would be great, but I know that's not possible. All anyone can do is ask Bravenet to remove them and hope for the best. I know it makes all our efforts to find blogs of interest much more difficult and time-consuming; I'll have to spend several hours searching for new and/or existing journals that haven't been given any exposure...
Now,
Clarisse mentioned that she had a question about something, but that she would wait for me to return. Well, Clarisse, I'm back; do you remember what you wanted to ask?

I also want to thank the following people for taking the time to drop by with links to new and/or existing bloggers - bloggers which have since been brought to everyone's attention here at the Community Blog:
Leah (
Sugar & Spice)
Hazel (visit her
Scrumptious Blog and her
Ultimate Piano blog)
Please don't hesitate to drop by with links to new or existing journalers here on Bravenet, folks. Also, if you or another Bravenet journaler will be having a birthday soon, drop me a line with the journal link, name, and birthday date, and we'll post a special Birthday Promo.

We're a
community, peeples, and this is the Community Blog; reaching out and getting more connected is why we're here, right?

Have a great day and a great week, fellow Bravenetters. Catch ya later!
