About me
Sunday, April 15, 2007   3:08 PM

Our Bold Hero is a full-time quality assurance technician (read: proofreader) based in St. Paul, Minnesota. He has had several part-time copy-editing jobs, but is not currently employed as a copy editor.

This blog is my place to write about stuff that none of my friends or coworkers are really interested in. Language stuff, editing stuff: just look at the "topics" on the sidebar. For the philosophy behind this blog, check out The Manifesto.



Hi Dan

Thanks for commenting on my blog, The Engine Room (http://engineroomblog.blogspot.com) - was wondering if you would be interested in a reciprocal link between your blog and mine.

Cheers
JD

Link: loved.



Hi Dan -- I see I'm following in JD's footsteps to say more of the same . . . Thanks for all traffic you've been sending MRP's way, I'd like to return the favor by also proposing reciprocal blogroll links. Great blog!



I've added your link; actually, I added it a while back and forgot to comment here.

Keep up the good work, pen.

Dear Dan,

you are nominated for the "Top 100 Language Blogs 2009" competition. Congratulations! After last year’s success the bab.la language portal and Lexiophiles language blog are hosting this year’s worldwide language blog competition once again. We are confident to surpass more than the 350 blogs which entered the competition in 2008.

We have made two major changes to last year:

1. Due to the amount of blogs we have created categories.
(Language Learning/Language Teaching/Language Technology/
Language Professionals)
You are in category Language Learning
2. User voting will count 50% towards final score

Voting will start on July 8, leaving you enough time to prepare your readers for the upcoming voting. Voting will close on July 27 and the winners will be announced on July 30.

For more information on the 2009 competition and what it is all about visit [http://www.lexiophiles.com/english/top-100-language-blogs-2009-nomination-started]
So now you may ask yourself what you can do. Here are some suggestions

-Nominations are open until July 6, so feel free to share any blog you like with us
-Each blog will have a one-sentence-description for the voting. If you would like a special description to go along with your blog, just send me an email [marc@bab.la]

Kind regards,
Marc
