It looks like there are a bunch of cool gimmicks this year. Intergalactic Hussy‘s sounds particularly interesting: “24 people. 1 event. 24 stories. A murder has been committed at a costume party and during the blogathon I’ll be writing the stories of the guests, starting with the victim and finishing with the murderer. I’ll be taking related improvs from visitors.”

Don’t forget the cam portal where you can get an all-at-once-glance of bloggers with webcams.

Lastly, if you want to chat with me, any time I’m at the computer, I’ll be on Trillian (AOL IM: lazeblogathon).
