Yes, it is much quicker and easier just to have a links list style Blog Carnival as you can just copy and paste the submissions but surely it’s better for the host to spend a bit of time to adding their own comments, some photos, additional links etc.

Probably once a month is often enough for me. I collate the Canival in stages as I receive the submissions so I.m happy that many submissions are early and I make the submission dates a few days before Carnival is due to be posted, I couldn’t do it all the night before.

I’ve heard from some people saying they’d share a view, but… (fill in the blank).

ALL views are interesting to me. Not because I’m worried about the number of entries I receive. Your view may be similar to a whole lot of people or it may be totally unique…either way, sharing with other people helps connect and break down barriers.

You did a great job putting this carnival together. Too many people who submit don’t realize what it takes to get the carnival online.

One of the benefits of participating in carnivals is getting new links. If anyone appearing in this edition wants to exchange with The Lives And Times… stop on by and let me know.
