Those were the words I used
to kick off last summer’s Blogging ‘Round the Clock<\/a>. They were true then, but even truer now as we’ve got a definite party going on tonight<\/a> (Shea’s even drinking beer!<\/a> — ;-)). Of course, those words only represent my getting started (though I often like to think I’m the life of the party) — a number of the other blogs are going strong at this point.<\/p>\n

Want to keep up with everyone’s posting tonight? Go visit the Green Blogathon Squidoo Lens<\/a> that Shea set up (and that got a mention on Seth Godin’s blog today<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Another cool feature: audio. Ryan Wiseman at be sustainable<\/a> has set up a call-in number for comments which will appear throughout the night<\/a>. His first podcast of the blogathon<\/a> has some very cool tunes — Ryan also has a hell of a radio voice…<\/p>\n

You can still make a pledge, of course — leave it in the comments or drop me an email<\/a>. And thank you for whatever support you can offer as we blaze into the wee hours here…<\/p>\n
