FAQ and Submissions

Welcome to the New Blog Showcase Blog. After NZ Bear put his New Blog Showcase on hiatus I thought it was a shame that such a good idea go to waste. So I humbly present this weekly New Blog Showcase Carnival, with the explicit aim of giving exposure to newer members of the blogosphere.

This will work a little differently to the Bear's old system. The qualification criteria remains simple: your blog must be less than 3 months old. Submit your post to the host of each week's carnival (list of hosts is here). The carnival will be run once a week.

I strongly encourage people with blogs to link to those posts they enjoy. Or if you have something more you want to add, or disagree with, or whatever. Bloggers live for linkage and giving newer members of the blogosphere a taste of that is the aim of this site. All I ask is you also link back to the post here at this site as well as at the original.

Submissions

If you want to submit a post please title the email "Showcase entry" and include the following information in the email:

1. Your blog's name and URL
2. Your post's title and permalink
3. An excerpt or precis of the post for me to put up here to tempt people to read and link to your site.
4. Your name and a contact email address (for verification purposes only)

For submitting you can use the following:
1. Use the central submission email: showcase.carnival@gmail.com
2. Use the multi-carnival submission form, found via Harvey.
3. Check the upcoming host's site for other submission details.

What do entrants need to do in return?

I also would like to ask every submitter to add the Showcase and the host blog to their blogroll as the quid pro quo for being added to this site. Secondly as per Harvey's suggestion I would like each new blogger to also link to at least one other entry (apart from their own). It's an extremely small price to pay.

Feel free to recommend posts from other people's blogs who match the criteria. Please include the same details as above PLUS your contact details (email) and if possible permission from the original blog too.

Any feedback or comments is welcome.

UPDATE: Harvey has asked some good questions.

Firstly there is no voting on these entries. On the key lessons from Bear's experience was voting descended into a political cat-fight. I strongly encourage people to link to their favourite posts and humbly request they link to both the original post and back to the Showcase blog. I suppose if a certain post garners lots of links then it could be considered a "winner" but there will be no official winners each week.

Secondly posts will be made as they are received and left for a week from the time of posting. It makes the admin far simpler for me.

UPDATE 2:

Blogroll

At Dean's suggestion I am going to ask that every blog that submits an entry adds Showcase to their Blogroll.

Also if you are an "Established" blogger I also humbly request you add Showcase to your Blogroll. The greater the linkage, the greater the exposure and the better the showcase will be.

Permalinks

Already some newer bloggers are unsure as to what "Permalinks" are. On almost every blogging platform each individual entry has a marker that is the single identifier of that entry. This is called the Permalink and that is what I need to link to your brilliant post. It is often at the bottom of the post, next to the comments part. It may say "Link", "Permalink", "#", or the time or date or something else completely. It is important to find these links as otherwise I have to search your blog to find your post and I don't have that much time...

If you are still unsure, at the very least give me the post title and the date of entry and I will track the permalink for you. But you need to work out Permalinks, for they are the lifeblood of linkage, which is the lifeblood of the Blogosphere.

UPDATE 3: I'm going to slowly compile a list of Blogging Tips and add them to the sidebar. Any suggestions are greatly welcomed. For newcomers please look through these as they contain pearls of wisdom from people who have been there and done that.

Very neat idea!!

Posted by: Jim at June 22, 2004 10:33 AM

Will people be voting for their favorites and a winner selected?

Will the entries be posted en masse for 7 days, say Sunday to Sunday, or is it just "as they come in"?

I'm glad that someone is taking the time to get this up and running again. I started blogging right after the original went dormant and often wished it had been available. One more for the blogroll.

Great job bringing this back! You're not only blogrolled...you're in my permanent links section.

Posted by: Jiminy at June 25, 2004 09:13 PM

Excellent idea. I have nothing to offer you presently, but will add you to my blogroll immediately.

I go on vacation and apparently miss a lot. Thanks for resurrecting the Showcase. Into the blogroll with ye.

Posted by: physics geek at June 29, 2004 05:48 PM

It is a excellent idea to showcase the new blogs and it would be better if the new blogs are categorized.

Posted by: Phani at September 27, 2004 05:17 PM

This is the greatest! I have a brand new blog and I will immediately send in my entry. Thanks!!!

Posted by: Gullyborg at October 23, 2004 12:56 AM

Really good work. I found a lot of profound information which can help me to go on. Thanks for all this input.

Posted by: Regina Jane at December 1, 2004 09:02 AM

Posted by: Melinama at January 29, 2005 01:55 PM

I really am not aware of the use of the permalinks in my blogs and I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide further information on the benefits derived from using permalinks. And also please add some info on trackbacks.

Thank you in advance!
