I just found out about a project that Tino Buntic has going on called 2000 Bloggers. He is collecting 2000 pictures and links for bloggers and posting them on his blog. Tino’s been working the project for less than a month and his quota of 2000 bloggers is nearly done.
Here is what he has to say about his project:
There are dozens of social networks that bring the blogosphere together, with Technorati and MyBlogLog being two of the biggest. I wanted to bring a whole bunch of bloggers together on one page. 2000 bloggers to be exact! As I write this there are 300 bloggers on the page to start. If you want to be included in 2000 Bloggers, leave a comment here with a link to your blog and your name and I will add you.
Two requirements, though: 1. You must have a photo of yourself somewhere on your blog, and 2. Your blog must have been created prior to January 1st of this year.
And, don’t worry… I won’t judge your blog. I link to all bloggers, A-List Bloggers, C-List Bloggers, All Blogs in between, and some that nobody has ever seen. I don’t care if you have a daily readership of 100,000 people or if you have a daily readership of a dozen people – I’ll link to you.
I submitted SuccessCREEations last night before I went to bed and I think there were about 100 places left. Of course it is possible that I miscounted and there is no room left. We’ll just have to see.
2000 bloggers reads, um…, looks like a who’s who of the blogging world. Scanning the photos quickly I came up with a list of a few I recognized there. If I missed your photo, I apologize. It’s either because A). I don’t see your photo around enough to recognize your face even though I read your blog, or B). I’m sleep deprived, undercaffinated (and blond to boot!)
Anyway here are some of the folks represented at 2000 Bloggers:
- Andrew Wee
- Jeremy Schoemaker
- Phil Gerbyshak
- Christine Kane
- Ben Yoskovitz
- Donald Trump
- Rosie O’Donnell
- Mike Sansone
- Sean Howard

Enjoy!
Hi Chris,
The 200 blogger project is pretty awesome! I love seeing all the faces. What an awesome community to be a part of. It has also created a ton of links to my blog.
Hey, Kirsten! I was a little slow on the uptake on this one so it will be interesting to see if I made the cutoff. Imagine how much traffic Tino must be getting from this!
Chris, thanks for posting the 2000 blogges and including Flooring The Consumer. What an amazing way to showcase how diverse the blogosphere is!
C.B. The diversity is pretty amazing, isn’t it? And I just thought this was a good opportunity to give a shout out to the faces I recognized out there. Glad to share the link love!
Wow, such a great idea! Thanks for the heads up. I signed up but I’m not sure if I’m 1,999 or too late. =O)
Hey Maggie! I hope we made it in. But I’m not holding my breath, though!
You must have keen eyes to spot me in the sea of many! Glad you were able to participate in 2000 bloggers. And, thanks so much for the link!
Robyn, Somehow your comment got eaten up by Askimet (again). I gave it the heimlich maneuver to get it out and then deleted the duplicate. Sorry for that.
This isn’t the first time I’ve noticed one of your comments in there. In one of my sleep deprived moments I even deleted one of your comments by mistake. I screamed a mental, “NOOOOOO!” in the few seconds between when I clicked delete all and it actually left the screen.
I know Joe Hauckes had that same problem at one time. You might contact him and find out what he did to get out of the Askimet penalty box.
As to the condition of my eyes, let’s just say I normally wear industrial strength contact lenses. Really I’m quite blind!
