Social Media Carnival

For whatever reason last year, the social media carnival died. I doubt it was due to interest, it was more likely that it was too much to manage as it is a very time intensive process. Long story short, we have intervened and we are now the new home of the Social Media Blog Carnival!

Huh? What’s A Blog Carnival?

What’s a social media blog carnival you ask? It’s a weekly online event where people submit and nominate great blog articles about social media, new media practices, theory and statistics and the best are chosen by the weekly judge and results are posted here on New Media Lab. This isn’t limited to America, nor is it limited to written word, we are encouraging people to submit video blogs and audio entries as well as blog posts. It’s also not niche or genre specific- submissions about “small business social media,” “using new media in marketing gardeners” and vlogging about “social media tips for college students” are welcome, so long as the focus is on new media.

We Need YOU!

Right now, we are in need of judges- all entries for one week are sent to you, you review them, name a winner and write a blog post listing all the entries and explanation for why your chosen winner is so awesome. It’s easy! If you’re interested, please email us now to save your spot; the resulting schedule will be posted soon.

A new URL will be named next week, as will more badges (like the awesome one above) and a list of hosts, so stay tuned and click one of the buttons below to tell a friend!
