Watch This Spot

Mister Snitch has put together a compliation of the best posts of 2005, which will be released later today [watch here for the direct URL]. This isn't a collection of the best blogs, but rather individual postings. I'm not privy to the list, but he's already stated that while there are some individual postings from blogs that are widely lauded, there are more than a few that are from obscure sites and minor bloggers.

He's also looking for folks to help promote the launch.

When the "Best of" post goes up, it will include options through which bloggers can "sponsor" the effort, driving traffic to a central information location. In return, "sponsors" receive a share of the traffic that this project will generate going forward. We will take out periodic blogads for this project, and should the publication effort bear fruit it will generate publicity for the project. This likewise will build project-specific site traffic which will trickle down to sponsors.

This will be explained in detail once the post is up. Meanwhile, if you have no yet done so, you might consider placing one of the banners/buttons below in a post or sidebar. For those who have this banner in their sidebar already, the URL of the completed post has not changed. You're all set.

Thank you all for your interest and support. We are moving ahead. Copy and paste any of the codes below into a post or sidebar to help us announce this project.

Watch this space for the link to the final posting.

UPDATE 2/2/2006:
The Best Posts of 2005 are finally out. It's worth the wait.
