Blogger Forum

If writing in your own blog is not enough, apparently there's also a FORUM for bloggers you can go to. For those of you who has yet to discover blogger forum, here's a couple of funny "articles" I've found.

Blogging Gene Discovered

What drives a person to blog? Turns out that some people are pre-disposed to blog --Born To Blog could be their motto.

This discovery was revealed today by the Register, the British equivalent to Scientific American. If the Register states that something is scientific fact, then it must be so in the same sense that an Alabama county school board concluded that evolution is a "theory" held in disrepute by most scientists. But I digress.

Webloggers are born not made, and shouldn't be persecuted. The activity could be a positive, group-bonding social function such as grooming, or simply a harmless way of passing the time, such as masturbation.

In sifting through the blog data, scientists were first puzzled by one method bloggers use for social interaction. Something the scientists first believed was called "arse feeding" but later discovered was more likely called "RSS feeds". The exact purpose of Arse or "RSS" feeds remains a mystery.

Gmail Invitation

For those of you with Gmail, you have probably noticed that there is a "Invite a Friend" link on the left side of your screen that allows you to send invitations to two people to get Gmail.

These are the invitations some are selling on eBay for around $40 each.

If you don't have Gmail and want it, see if you can talk a Blogger user into sending you one of theirs.

For those who still have invitations available, pick a couple of good friends and make the day for them.

Don't sell your invitations on eBay. That's just plain tacky.

Oh darn. You can sell that for $40 on ebay? I wish I had thought of that!! :)
