Australia Day
I don’t often blog about holidays, especially foreign holidays that I don’t know a heck of a lot about. Ok, honestly, I had a vague idea that there was a holiday called Australia Day, but thanks to all my Aussie blogger friends over at the Aussie Bloggers Blog, I’m learning more about the land down under. I may not know any more about the history of Australia, but by reading their blogs I’m learning more about the most important thing a country can have - its people. I have found Aussie Bloggers to be some of the friendliest people I have (n)ever met.
In fact, a bunch of them have got themselves together and started a forum to help ordinary bloggers who may not know so much about blogging, but really want to have the blog of their dreams. The Aussie Bloggers Forum is not just for bloggers from Australia. Oh no, don’t let that hold you back. They speak English and use all the same blog platforms that you do, so they are not only capable but willing to answer any questions you can throw at them. I’ve been on the blogosphere for nearly 2 years now, and have been perusing message forums for nearly 10 years, and this is the first forum I have come across that not only caters to bloggers, but is extremely friendly and helpful. I have another forum on my blogroll that I never really got into because all the posts are titled “Please Help” or something equally vague. Not here. The friendliness of everyone involved makes it much easier to get the answers you’re looking for, whether you’re looking through older threads or posting a new question.
So stop by the Aussie Blog or Forum and wish some friendly Aussie bloggers a Happy Australia Day!
