I guess I’ll get stuff done on Saturday! It won’t be happening today…I’m going to bury myself in lists again. I had so much fun going through them the last few days…and once again, i’m planning to come up with those that caught my attention…
Great response this time Darren! I can’t believe how many there were!
Wow, it is just amazing how much people enjoy lists. Darren this has been a big hit. I especially liked this one http://www.meninaprons.net/archives/000505.html except for the fact that it made me hungry.
Wow. The more it grows, the less chances of winning the delicious ‘Sinic Eye and Brain Massager’.
(knock on wood!)
I just did a quick swoop around the ones that caught my eye. This one stands out for me. Very nicely written.

Thanks Darren! My list on how to gain genuine traffic has become my MOST READ POST TO DATE! Plus it earned me 1 subscriber. Even if I don’t win any prizes, I still consider myself a winner.
It’s huge link info….any way thanks
I love these group projects Darren. They are unique and I don’t see them anywhere else. Do them more often! Even if there are no prizes to give away.
