Here's the official poster for the Third Annual Brooklyn Blogfest, the storied gathering of Brooklyn bloggers. It was founded and is organized by Louise Crawford of Only the Blog Knows Brooklyn.
I dont know about this one mcBrooklyn. Seems like a "blogfest" would be a bunch of people sitting in a circle taking pictures of each other, "posting" them and then looking at their belly-buttons (except you of Course!) What do the donations goto?
Definitely. Not only the countless hours sitting in front of the computer, but something about the technology itself is turning us all into a bunch of potatoes.
I'm not sure about obese but perhaps some character/social defects for sure! For example, The BhBlog guy is insane about the Busy Chef. Just mention the two words and he starts frothing at the mouth. Also, before I started commenting here I was there and noticed how mean they can be about people. Dont want to get into it as its such a beautiful day! I like the positivity of Mcbrooklyn.
8:43 I hear you about the brooklynheights blog guy--still a good place for news though, but the guy is a bit mental re busy chef and his experience there
Seems like they're trying to improve. I'm told they made some personnel changes -- like putting the people who can't speak English into non-customer support areas, etc.
I like reading good blogs--but maybe there's a new axiom about bloggers and blogs, where the better the blog is probably better to be read than their bloggers seen. Chew on that.

Do you believe there is a connection between blogging and obesity?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely. Not only the countless hours sitting in front of the computer, but something about the technology itself is turning us all into a bunch of potatoes.
ReplyDeleteI noticed this recently the majority of bloggers that I have met in the area would be considered to be obese.

ReplyDeleteIf we take a look at the local bloggers it is true that most of them are overweight.

ReplyDeleteI may be mental, I may get frothy, and I occasionally may be mean to the defenseless, but the Busy Chef Still Suckks.

ReplyDeleteChew on that.
