What do you get when you cross a blog directory with a forum discussion area? Throw in some social gizmos along the lines of adding a blogger as a 'friend' and joining 'neighborhoods' -- you get BlogCatalog.
Before I get into BlogCatalog too much, I just have to say that I found out about it on my way over to apologize to Chris for referring to he as a she -- and hopefully I can get back over to add him as friend really quick before I get a bad name in my neighborhood.
Why you should be in the BlogCatalog
Outside of the obvious reasons for getting your blog listed in a directory, there are perks to go along with BlogCatalog. You can truly hook up with like minded blogs very easily, and there are a lot to choose from. Also the discussion area is quite active and a great place to go for information on wide range of blogging subjects -- or just to shoot the breeze.
This place is great way to build your network of blogging buddies with. That in itself, is probably worth the price of admission -- did I mention that it is free.
Signing up was a breeze. Even though they say it would take 24-48 hours, I was in under 15 minutes. And within minutes of being approved, I had visitors and comments coming in. How cool is that?
So if you decide to check out Blogcatalog, stop by my place and say hello.
