But the BP I imagine is a bit different in that it's only concerned with collecting solutions to specific problems. I've got the page up now that describes it all more clearly. It's at: http://www.nataliedarbeloff.com/bloggersparliament.html Thanks for fixing the overlong link earlier. 20999@blogcritics.org Tue, 30 Sep 2003 01:07:26 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20967 Oh and BTW, Blogcritics IS an informal blogger's parliament. 20967@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Sep 2003 18:37:15 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20965 I believe I fixed something here a while ago. 20965@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Sep 2003 18:35:35 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20959 What link? Is it fixed now? 20959@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Sep 2003 18:17:49 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20930 Well, MacDiva luv, do you think that the mediocre and certainly not far-sighted people currently running the world (I could name names but won't bother) are doing such a great job? Personally, I think there might be a few ideas out there in the blogosphere that are more relevant, appropriate and constructive than anything coming out of the mouths and minds of most of those "important people" in the news. And by the way, I never said anything about the Bloggers Parliament being aimed at wannabe important people. It's an ideas tank, not self-promotion scheme. And even if there will only be a few really good ones, that's enough. How many people do you need to change a lightbulb? Thanks for the appropriate M.Mead quote, Natalie/ 20930@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Sep 2003 16:07:15 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20785 "You are overestimating this echo chamber of wannabe important people, luv." ROFLMAO! Good one, MD. At the same time, it seems appropriate to quote Margaret Mead: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it's the only thing that ever has." Seems to me that anything is worth a try. 20785@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Sep 2003 01:28:21 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20780 I don't believe most bloggers have any solutions to the world's problems -- or their own. You are overestimating this echo chamber of wannabe important people, luv. On the long link, try editing it. If that doesn't work, email P.W. to fix it. 20780@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Sep 2003 00:32:58 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20580 Help! How to correct this mistake of the loooong link in the MT posting box? But apart from that, is anybody interested in joining this 'Parliament? 20580@blogcritics.org Sat, 27 Sep 2003 07:39:34 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/26/220014.php#comment-20572 Now that's what I call one lonnnnng link. 20572@blogcritics.org Sat, 27 Sep 2003 04:21:24 EDT
