Switching to Beta Blogger
I know that it's no longer called Beta but for the purposes of this post, I'm calling it that. I've gotten a number of emails from people who have switched from Blogger to Beta and then lose the blogroll in the switch. I have no problem resending the code but I'm concerned that you might not remember everything that you had in your sidebar, so I thought I would offer a suggestion. Before you switch save your template by copying it into a text program like Notepad. Then you can copy the code from your sidebar to your new blog.
If you switched recently before you saved a copy of your template, you could Google your blog name, then select "Cached." BTW, this is a good trick to use if you messed up your sidebar and didn't back it up recently, an old copy of your blog is still available via Google (that's what "cached" means). This happened to me recently, I had made some additions to my sidebar a couple weeks previously and I went to replace a comment in my sidebar, not knowing that my stupid touchpad had selected everything below the comment and I deleted everything and then saved my template without verifying that it was ok. I was able to get the code back by googling my blog, then selecting "Cached" and then right click on mouse and select "View Page Source" from the menu. Then I just copied the sidebar material that was missing.

The headlines are up!
I was able to put up all seven of the headlines, so there is no one on the waiting list. If you want to be the first one displayed in a month, email me.
Tags:
We have the 5!
Five (actually six) bloggers have already responded but you can still email your url so that you can be on the waiting lists, I will tell you what number you are so that you know when your headlines will be up on the Metablog. You don't have to install the Metablog headlines while you are waiting. I will email you in a month to remind to install it. If I get the headlines up tonight, then they will be up until Feb. 17.
Don't be bummed if you didn't make it, I have something else in the works to help promote your blog. I will try to get it ready to announce this week, next week at the latest. :-)

An Advertising Offer
I mention that I would be offering you an opportunity to advertise your headlines on the sidebar of the Metablog. The first five people who install the following code on their sidebar and email me their url, will be put on the sidebar of the Metablog for a month.
And the rest will be put on a waiting list and the next five will be displayed for two weeks at the end of the month. And when we have gone through the list, we will start back at the beginning and work through the list. I will continually add new people to the list if you want to join later. You only have to display the Blogging Chicks headlines while we are displaying your headlines. Look at it as a reciprocal headlines exchange. I only have one caveat and that is you refrain from swearing in your headline (just in the headline) during the time that you are displayed here.
Now, anyone who wants to know what's been posted at the Metablog (especially what's going on with the Carnival and something else that I will be announcing this week that would benefit your readers) might want to add the code to your sidebar.
Another way to be informed about what's going on here, at the Metablog is to subscribe to our feed, either by email or one of your favorite RSS readers. There is a form and a chicklet in the sidebar. I plan to post more informational stuff here, so you might want to keep checking back.
If anyone has problems installing the code, email me.

The Purpose of the Metablog
I thought it might be helpful to repeat the purpose of the Metablog. We have so many new blogs added and I don't think the new people are getting what we are about. The purpose of the Metablog is to advertise the blogs on the blogroll and to that purpose we have Carnivals as well as announcements about any special event on the blogs.
Another purpose of the blogroll is to offer helps and tips on blogging which you will find by clicking on the "Blogging Resources" tab. I will be adding to those resources in the coming weeks before I return to seminary. If you've written a post that you think would be helpful to other bloggers, email the link to me and I will post it on the Metablog, if I think it's helpful.
Also, in the coming weeks I will be offering a way for you to promote your content (as headlines) here on the Metablog, if you promote the content of the Metablog on your blog. Details will follow (eventually :-) You can see an example of what it might look like by checking out the headlines of my blog Life Under the Sun on the sidebar.

Blogging Chicks Carvinal
We will be having a Carnival this week so make sure you get your post written early! I've decided to widen the theme a little bit to include what you're planning to do in the future, either resolutions or future plans for your blog or dieting or vacations or whatever. So, you can either blog about your Christmas/Holiday or your plans for the future. Email me by midnight (EST) on Saturday.
Updated: If you want to do a year in review post, you can submit that as well. So, the theme would be looking back or forward.
