The American Association of Advertising Agencies estimates we see 650 ads in a day.
Today, you get to see 653 advertisements thanks to the Best of 2009 Blog Challenge hosted by Gwen Bell, a fellow blogger, writer, Tweeter, and web entrepreneur. Gwen has asked all bloggers participating in her challenge to write about the advertisement that made them think this year.

I’m participating in a group writing project hosted by Daily Blog Tips, a blog dedicated to, well, providing daily blog tips. The theme of the project is “2009 in review.” You can find the complete list of participating bloggers on the DailyBlogTips site starting next Monday (Dec. 14).
Projects like these are a great way to meet other bloggers, generate ideas for blog posts, and of course, getting links. If you blog and haven’t done something like this, I suggest you try it. But I digress.

Now that a few days of the May Blogathon have passed, I thought I would post the full list of other writers slash bloggers who are participating in the 2nd Annual WordCount Blogathon, which I am also participating in.

Yesterday I signed up for the 2nd annual WordCount Writers’ Blogathon put together by Michelle V. Rafter, a freelance writer who writes for online magazines such as IncTechnology.com, Portfolio.com, and MoneyWatch.com. Every freelance writer who joins the Blogathon makes a commitment to post to their blog each and every single day in May. Seeing how today is May 2 and yesterday I did not post here, I’ve already failed.
But never fear! With every failure a valuable lesson follows. So even though I missed the first day of the Blogathon, I thought I would take this opportunity to share a few relevant tips on blog writing.
