I have to say, though, I was quite pleased when I read this incredibly nice post about me by Tina Williams at New Old Moms Club. But when she updated it with this video today, I was blown away. The idea that she not only said flattering things about me, but also took the time to peruse all my sites (no easy task for anyone, even incredibly bored) and took the time to create a rather lengthy video… well, it’s nothing short of amazing.

So everyone, please visit the New Old Moms Club. It’s a cool blog anyway (geared at new moms age 40 and over). But maybe you can get lucky enough to be one of her Friday Friends. (And can I just say, it’s also just so nice to see someone else who believes my philosophy that the blogosphere is a place for giving and contributing to the blog community the way she is with her Friends Club). I’m definitely glad to be one!

Beyond that, however, I liked the idea of a magazine style blog to serve as the epicenter of the blogosphere. For one thing, I think there are certain old school fools who think blogging isn’t real writing. Well, Blog Nosh is about to truly prove you wrong. Off the top of my head, I can list several amazing writers who are bloggers.

Flash forward to today, and the site launched with quite a buzz. I am one of the esteemed Blog Nosh editors for the geeky-sweet Tech and Metablogging channel. And I’m in some amazing company… I can’t list everyone, but you can see the list of editors. It includes some of my fave bloggers at cool must-read blogs like Crash Test Mommy, This Mommy Gig, Mamma Loves, doobleh-vay, To Think is to Create, so many more I’ve got to just stop.

If you’re still wondering what exactly Blog Noshin’s about, this is the succinct description on the site:

What is Blog Nosh Magazine? We are an online magazine featuring the best archived content from primarily personal blogs, spotlighting a cross-section of topics and perspectives. New posts daily.

For bloggers, if it has fallen off of your front page and you know it deserves more time and exposure, we are your ideal resource. We are in the business of building your audience. As such, we republish your posts in full. Teasers and headlines alone aren’t always enough to tempt new readers, so we give them the opportunity to nosh on your writing in its original form, not just through crumbs that don’t entice much click-through.

For readers, we are a veritable blog buffet. A little bit of this, a little more of that, and lots of treats you never thought you would even want to try, let alone enjoy. We hope you will take the time to read posts in categories and channels that you might never seek out on your own. Most importantly, we ask you to take a moment to click through to the blogs of the authors we spotlight. This site only works if the authors feel they are gaining a real reader, not a random one-time hit. Give them a chance– we’ve already taste-tested them for you!

So hey you bloggers and blogaholics, get Noshing.

(Psst: If you’re a blogger, you can get some sweet free exposure by submitting one of your kick-butt posts for consideration on the Nosh.)
