Vote Early, Vote Often

One of the great things about blogs is that you can post as many entries as you want. In fact, the format encourages it. Due to circumstances such as the worm that's infected my work computer this past week with malware and data miners, slowing my regular Internet activity to a crawl (although it does give me a rush of nostalgia for the old dial-up days), I haven't been posting or reading my blogroll as easily or frequently as I had been. I noticed the bottom of my sidebar containing the Javascript-generated auto-listing of all League of Liberals blogs has sort of trailed off beyond the end of the Blogger template I use because I've made so relatively few (and shorter) posts lately. As time permits I'll try to remedy that, but I wanted to get a jump on something in which I participated too late last week. The Truth Laid Bear's weekly New Weblog Showcase contest has changed its rules slightly, but at least they're all spelled out clearly enough now for even me to understand. I'm going to cast my votes early this week. In the Political category, I liked two posts from Dawn at Clareified, Death by Invitation and What Does A Lawyer Look Like?. In the Non-Political category, I found Muggle Migrane on Michelle's And Then? blog pretty interesting. Now mind you, I still haven't figured out how these "votes" get from my blog onto the list of entries on TTLB's showcase, but if I did it wrong or if the LoL's choose other entries, the beauty of it all is that I can always make another post!
