I just checked out the Bloggiesta mini-challenges, and I’ve decided to add these ones to my Bloggiesta list:
The Book Lady’s Blog: Clean up your feedreader. This is something I’ve been thinking about doing – I even posted about blog overload recently! My plan is to borrow an idea that Beth F. suggested to me: place the blogs that I am subscribed to in alphabetical folders.
Speaking of Beth F., I’m also going to be doing her challenge: Write a post and save it for another day. I’m not sure whether I’ll write an opinion post or a list post, but I have ideas for both in my blogging notebook, so I have quite a few choices.
I love blog commenting, although I don’t have as much time for it as I’d like. So I’ll be doing Fizzy Thought’s challenge: Go forth and comment!
Some time today I’ll also be heading over to GalleySmith’s and linking to something on here in her comments section with the proper anchor text. Unless a blog has enabled do-follow comments (for example, when you comment here, Comment Luv is activated and you get an SEO-valid link back to your latest post), you’re not going to get major SEO benefits from links in your comments on that blog, but it’s still a VERY good reminder to always use related anchor text when creating links to your blog!
The final mini-challenge I’m going to attempt is Book Blather’s blogging tips and tutorials challenge. The idea is to go through this list of blogging tips and tutorials at Problogger and learn a new tip (and possibly put it to good use over Bloggiesta!). This one sounds like fun.
Are you in Bloggiesta? Which mini-challenges are you going to tackle? Even if you’re not doing Bloggiesta, do any of these mini-challenges sound like fun to you?

They all sound both useful and fun. I especially love the one at Fizzy Thoughts. I wish I could join! Stupid final weeks of the semester *grumbles*

Good luck. I’m just happy to have a free weekend for a change — so far no rain. Can you say “read on the deck”?

I’m not partidipating in the Bloggiesta as we are on the road traveling. But I wanted to cheer you on. You’ve set good realistic goals and I’m sure you can do it.
Go Belle! Go Belle! Yeah!!!

LOL. I’m glad I read your post. I didn’t realize two of the things I’m doing are mini-challenges. I’ve been cleaning up my reader and commenting on people’s bloggiesta posts.

All the mini-challenges look great, I think I’m going to try and tackle at least 4 more today. Best of luck with your bloggiesta goals

I’ve been having a blast with the mini challenges! When i signed up to join the bloggiesta at the last minute today, I thought I would spend just a little time on it since I had other things to do today. Well my schedule went out the window and I’ve spent a good part of the day working on this project. Thanks for sharing your thoughts – I’ve enjoyed peeking through your blog.
I like this idea. Just tonight I decided to organize my subscriptions in my feeder into Daily Reads, Weekly Reads, and then those I like to read but don’t always comment on-I lurk :O. Sometimes I avoid my GR because of the # of posts I know I need to read. It has already helped me to feel less overwhelmed. By the way, you, of course, are in my Daily reads folder.
