National Blog Posting Month

Petition to Change Name to GloBloPoMo

I'm taking part in NaBlo for the second, but hey! I'm not American. I'm a South African living in Germany and there are many other global bloggers also participating.

Let's consider a name change for next year. How about GloBloPoMo (my favourite) or IntBloPoMo (coined by (Un)Relaxeddad at http://relaxedparents.com).

Which do you prefer?

I'm one of the non-USA bloggers too, living in Amsterdam in The Netherlands, so hello to all the other non-USA bloggers taking part in this this month.; ▶ Reply to This
