Meet my Neigbours (Neighbors) 2000 bloggers

Good Lord! I’m surrounded by cats! My neighbour to the left owns 5, and the lady to the right owns 7. We have a dog. It should be interesting.

I’m referring to the meteoric rise of the 2000 bloggers initiative by Tino Buntic. Are you over the excitement of seeing your face on the mosaic, yet? Enjoying the” link love”?

How about taking it to the next step, and getting to know your neighbours. Left and right, above and below. And then take it one step further, write a little about them. So….

Meet My Neigbours

Elaine Vigneault

Elaine writes about herself… “I’m an amateur whiner, professional hippy, and fat vegetarian who graduated beauty school but dropped out of law school. I write about my dog, my poker player husband, and various emo shit. “

Hi Eliane (seriously, either this is an old photograph, or you need to redefine your definition of “fat”)! I enjoyed reading your bio – you write well, and very candidly. I really like your style. Elaine lives in Manhattan with her husband and 5 cats, and has a blogging mother-in-law!

Sam Lamp

Sam writes “I am a self taught computer geek, photography nut, and web designer. I live in southern Vermont and I am happily married with 7 katz. Yes I said 7. Looks like I am going to be changing my email address soon.”

Hi Sam nice to meet you, by the way – I HATE moving too. Sam is really into photography and has some really great photography and Flickr tips and cool photos on her blog.

Graeme Villeret

Graeme writes “My blog is about my work, my life (not the same ??), technology, sciences, life, world… oh, la la…“

Bonjour Graeme – c’est un plaisir pour vous rencontrer. Unfortunately my french is incredibly rusty, but it appears that Graeme edits the following websites and more; www.populationdata.net, www.lesbaleines.net, www.searchenginesdir.com, www.worldpopclock.com, www.auroresboreales.com, www.montrealcafe.com. I think Graeme lives in Quebec Canada and all these websites must keep him incredibly busy. I can’t see any reference to pets….

Megan Taylor

Megan writes: “SOJo: Student of Online Journalism is a blog about the Web, the media, journalism, and classes related thereto. I am a Junior at the University of Florida studying journalism and linguistics. I work at the UF Computing Help Desk, where I am a consultant. I love to write, play with words, and discover new ways to take advantage of technology.”

Hi Megan (great name ) I see you have changed your major 3 times (must be something to do with the name – I changed mine 5 times)! Megan is 20 and lives in Gainesville Florida. Not suprisingly, as a student of online Journalism, Megan writes extremely well and her first precocious foray into computing was with DOS commands at the age of five, a hint of things to come…

So, these are my four very different neighbours and I’d like to challenge every one of the (soon to be) 2000 bloggers to write a short piece about their neighbours.

Update: As Megan has pointed out in the comments, the neighbours above and below may well change (? due to display size, screen resolution etc?) but it can still be done for the neighbours to the LEFT and RIGHT.
