More New Year Events

I wanted to throw a few New Year activities out there for those who might be interested.
Would you like to gain more readers for your blog? Make it easier for readers to access? Learn from other bloggers about widgets and other elements? Kim from
Sophisticated Dorkiness is hosting a year-long effort for improving her blog, and is inviting others to join her. She has been blogging for less than a year and wants us to share ideas for design, interesting content, stronger writing, all things that relate to blogging, whatever your main interest might be. This is definitely one I am going to do. The first topic on January 5 will be "Setting Goals — What Is Your Blog For?"

Sarah, the Thrifty Decor Chick, is having a sharing of organizing and de-cluttering ideas on January 12. I know I always say I want to get organized as one of my New Year's Resolutions each year and it doesn't happen, so I'm getting in on this one, too! I Click her button for more information.
Lisa is hosting the 3rd annual One World, One Heart Giveaway Event. For this event you, the blogger, host a giveaway sometime after January 19 with the winner announced on February 12. The main goal of this event is to meet bloggers from all over the world, so the giveaway prize or prizes are up to you. And of course, you can enter all of the other participants giveaways, too!

Joanne, from My Little Cottage in the Making, is starting an online support group called A Better Me! They will focus on healthy eating, working out, and living a healthier lifestyle. I definitely should check this one out! Although I've been working on this for a couple of months now, support is always needed.
