Technorati Train Meme – My Link Lovin For The Year

I noticed I hadn’t given out any link lovin in a while, so while I was surfing I stumbled across Bruce’s post on a meme, and figured what the heck. So this list has gotten pretty big already, and if you want to join in go to Brad Blogging’s post here. Anyways back to Warhammer Online for me.

I Just Realized That I Can’t Count – Day 4 Contest Winner – Entrecard Meme

It seems that I have become too dependent upon using a calculator that I can’t do simple additions in my head anymore. Anyways for those of you who didn’t catch my error, my contest started on a Tuesday, and ends Tuesday. This means the I was actually 8 running contest days for a total of 1,100 points and not 1,000. So that’s good news for the contest participants. The winner of which I’ll announce shortly.

Its been a hectic day today at the office so far, so I’ll be jumbling everything today in one big post.

It looks like there is an Entrecard meme going about now. I had first heard about it while returning a dropped card from Buzz Bop. I left a comment there joking about how long it was going to take before I get hit with it. Low and behold a few hours later I get tagged by that very meme from Alan. I found it funny that Colin also had that same experience happen to him the day before it looks like.

Alan didn’t post the instructions so I’ll pull them from the Buzz Bop post that I saw it on.

Entrecard Meme Instructions

With the full realization that these Entrecard meme instructions are being read by some of the most brain-fogged, weary net travelers known to mankind, I am going to keep this VERY, VERY simple. Btw, I say “brain-fogged” for the fact that ever since Entrecard “dropped” onto the scene, it’s a fair bet that each of us is seeing, at least, 2-3 times more blogs per day than usual. I would even venture 5-10 times more.

So Here They Are, The Simple Entrecard Meme Instructions

Read these instructions twice;

Drop your EntreCard at this site;

Drop your EntreCard at the 5 EntreCard users’ sites listed below;

Choose 5 other EntreCard users;

Copy these instructions to your own Entrecard meme article and tag (link) those 5 people;

Include a link to the Entrecard meme article of the person who tagged you;

Link to the original article “Sam Freedom’s Drop Squad – the First Entrecard Meme Known to Bloggers“;

Notify the people you choose that they’ve been tagged;

Comment below so even passers-by can drop their card at your site, too (it shows you are active and will likely return the favor)

(optional) IF you tag your blogs , use both “entrecard” and “entrecard meme” as tags so that others can find them AND so that we can find them all later as this grows. (If you don’t know what tagging is, don’t worry.)

Hard part now is finding people I know that haven’t already been tagged with the meme already. So I’ll tag some recent contest subscribers as my prey.

Buzz Bop – I’m going to put the blame on you for this meme so you get a tag =).

Abhijeet @ Life is Colorful – You’re the winner of today’s Entrecard Contest so I’m going to also tag you with this meme as well. Please verify that you get the credits after I finish posting this.

Clyde @ The World As We Know It -

The two lucky or unlucky people who got tagged from this are:

The 30 Day Man – Slightly Mordant

I hope you guys are enjoying this contest as much as I am. I’m getting quite a bit of card drops every day, and finding new/interesting sites to read from. It still perplexes me though that out of the 70 people who stop by to drop off cards, only a few people actually want to enter the contest. They’ve already done the requirement, but haven’t left a comment.

Here is the screen shot from the random draw today in case anyone was wondering. Now back to the office I go!

Tag Your It – 7 Things About Me Meme

Just when I thought I had everything ready for my trip I get tagged by a meme from Shai @ Just Make Money Online. Well if its one thing I can resist its games so here we go, and the game name is “7 Things About Me That You Might not Know”. I haven’t done one of these before, and I’m a little late on sending out some link love this month so I’ll mix the two together! Ha the lazy game-a-holic procrastinator still wins! I also need to make a mental note to add meme to the list of things to do t o increase traffic to your website. Also just because your blog is – for business only, doesn’t mean that you can’t change it topic around a little to fit the blog like Shai did in her meme. I don’t have a very descriptive about me section so maybe this info will fill in some gaps for some people.

7 Things About Me That You Might not Know – Well here goes nothing.

I play video games ALOT – While you probably know that I play video games, you don’t know to what extent I do so. Xfire keeps track of how many game hours you play if you have the messenger program running, and here’s a glimpse at my World of Warcraft playtime: 2,115 hours. Whew I’m a Gameaholic for sure, and that’s just the hours that the xfire logged. I used to turn the xfire off most of the time that I play to avoid interruptions.
Being bi rocks, bilingual that is – Growing up in Hawaii, but with one parent from Japan I did get to learn how to speak Japanese fluently. Only thing that sucks is having half your family halfway across the globe.
Playing with lenses is bad - Well this is a good a place as any to place confessions. So to my family, remember when our front yard looked like someone applied the scorched earth tactic to it? Well that was me playing with ants, and a magnifying glass. Note to kids, don’t try to burn an ant with a lens while its on dry tinder.
I’m Greek don’t ya know – Not in blood, but in spirit at least. Delta Tau Delta was my fraternity of choice, mainly because I wanted to be around the friend’s I made. While I won’t become as famous as Drew Carey (another Delt member), hopefully I’ll atleast be known around the blogosphere.
Maui born & raised – Yup locally grown, and cultivated this variety of Mitch has been sheltered here on the island of Maui for almost 30 years. The species isn’t know to wander too far away from the island, but has been spotted in some areas of Tokyo or Chicago for brief periods of time.
Anime Daisuki – I’m not an Otaku, but I do love my animations. Anything from cartoons, but mostly Japanese animations are my favorite. Current items being watched are Bleach, Clannad, Naruto, Bamboo Blade, and Dragonaut. One can never grow too old for anime.
It’s a boy! – Yup I’m a father of a very overly energetic, rascally little five year old. He’s also very smart. How do I know this? The son-of-a-Mitch managed to bring a wheelbarrow full of dirt into the house every day, with no wheelbarrow or shovel. Just the with the undersides of his small four inch feet. I have yet to figure this one out.

Now the hard part who to tag with this meme. I did say that I was also going to basically make this my November’s linkages. Here’s some people I’ve met recently over on Blogcatalog thats been fun to chat with in the forums, and also some people kind enough to send me traffic so here is my thank you. =)

Lex @ Parisukat
Alan @ The Thin Red Line
Megha @ Life in Black and White
JoanJoyce @ JoanJoyce
Joanne @ The Laid Back Buddhist – Good Luck on the 2007 weblog awards btw
Ritu @ Work n Play
Andy @ Andy Beard – That Greasemonkey solution for trackbacks is definitely easier to use than Haloscan. Thanks for the tip!
