The Virtual Symposium Returns: Let’s Pick A Topic!

The Virtual Symposium Returns: Let’s Pick A Topic!

Welcome to voting for the double X – or 20th, for those who don’t speak Roman – virtual symposium! It’s time to pick the topic, a topic which hopefully will open itself for a cornucopia of essays, fiction, poems, photos, erotica, personal memories, artwork, and all-around goodwill and support of the blogosphere.

Speaking of the support of the blogosphere and bloggers, [blog Darling_Annette] has created a number of promotional tiles which tout the topic-suggestion process, the voting process, and the symposium itself. Several of these feature photos of contributors. She’s always looking for more subjects, so contributors who are interested – and who have face photographs – are encouraged to contact her.

On to the symposium itself! Let’s pick one from those listed below, and on the morning of Sunday, June 5 I’ll provide a central landing page which will have links to all contributors’ offerings. No matter which topic we ultimately choose, I hope folks will warp it as wildly as befits their personalities. The more offbeat the interpretation, the better!

A suggestion: Since there have been a few site hiccups, I’d recommend writing your contribution in either a word processing program or (if you don’t want it hanging around on a shared computer) an email you send to yourself. On symposium Sunday, all you’ll have to do is cut, paste, and place images. Oh, and once I’ve put up a master list, if you could edit your post and provide a link so your readers can enjoy the other contributions, that would be jolly good show…

Once you do, be sure to leave a message on either this post the master list post indicating that you've made a contribution. I get notifications here faster than through any other channel...

A note: While we’ll accept contributions all day, this site’s problems with links going live should come as no surprise to anyone. The earlier folks post their contributions, the sooner, it seems, links go live.

Regarding the symposium itself, the only two rules are: A ) Please post as early on the chosen day as possible, to allow for maximum exposure (and, quite frankly, so I’m not glued to my desk all day), and B ) the posts should be entirely original, as opposed to commenting on other posts from the topic. Ideally, posts should be created beforehand, and put on the site on the designated day. (The comments sections, of course, would be fair game!) In deference to those of us with advancing ages and eyesight to match, posting entries in size 2 (this size) is appreciated, but not necessary.

A suggestion: Participants may want to refer to either the virtual symposium or the topic itself in their headline. Not a requirement – there are no requirements, save for originality and participation – but a suggestion which will let the blog community know what we’re doing. They should definitely let me know, once they’ve posted, that they’ve done so in the comments section on the blog: I get those notifications faster than through the site email system.

And… this is not a contest. No souvenir mugs will be sent, nor ribbons or bling awarded. The idea here is for those interested to, on a single day, offer an interpretation of a single topic for the sheer fun of it.

By all means, encourage other bloggers to participate – and to let me know they’re doing so through this post, so on June 5 I can link to their posts. Oh, and consider this permission – nay, encouragement – to the symposium and link back to this post! I’d like to make sure folks interested in participating have the opportunity to do so. , , – and remember, pimping is a great way to influence your topic of choice.

Electioneering is perfectly legal, here… so feel free to leave reactions, persuasive arguments, and snide asides (about topics, but NOT bloggers) in the comments section below. Also: A comment or two here will increase the symposium’s visibility… and it would be nice to affirm what the blogosphere can be.

So what topic will we use for the next virtual symposium? I’ve listed four – I think they’re general enough that, whichever one we end up choosing, most folks should be comfortable offering reactions. At any rate, here are the choices. Feel free to electioneer in the comments, below, for any you find particularly compelling.

Voting for the topic will close at end-day on Monday, May 30. this vote… and let’s get some more newbies involved!

Participants are encouraged to note in their contributions that they’re part of a communal effort and provide a link to the central page (adding that link retroactively, after I’ve created the central page, would be very helpful). Doing so allows someone who stumbles on one individual’s blog item to enjoy as many of our pieces as he/she wants… and further strengthens a sense of virtual community.

Annie, thank you as always for promoting the symposium... I am so far behind in reading that I am still catching up on the contributions for the 18th!

You have three days to make a choice -- and encourage others to vote for your choice -- happy election season!

Annie, je vous remercie, comme toujours pour la promotion du colloque... Je suis tellement loin derrière dans la lecture que je suis encore à rattraper les contributions pour le 18!

Hi your courageous master of ceremony, praise to you.

I'm rather unsure !i'll use your tribune for a comeback, having still a bad sight and a wound in my heart,
but it does'nt stop me from voting, isn't it ?
I'm rather surprised to see bisexuality is still in the poll, I thought it would have been a winner while I was away.
Thouh ... I vote for movies, such a large topic and it is possible to post a personal one simply as Nassyfox
explain in How to Post a Video in your Blog.
You now how strongly I support visuals in the symposium, right ? It could be sex ... or not.

No preference? You mean like not voting? Only Commies don't vote -- whaddaya, some sorta Commie? And if you ARE some sorta Commie, couldn't you at least find some other sorta-Commie to vote for? It's the American way.

Your suggestion could be a lot of fun! I like to include one participant-supported suggestion in each roster... And folks are reminded that suggestions are always welcome!

This is a tough choice for me. PD likes bad taste- which ought to be glaringly obvious. But she'd like to write about it too. So that's our vote!

Again, welcome back. You are certainly encouraged to vote, even if you're not sure about participating... I hope that your sight and heart are mending. It's good to see your words again!

As for bisexuality not being a chosen topic yet: Perhaps that was because you weren't around to campaign for it?

Movies could be a lot of fun... I have no idea what I would write about, but it could be a lot of fun. Then again, most topics could be a lot of fun, which is one of the advantages of being the one who ultimately picks which four are up for election!

However you choose to participate in the symposium is just right -- whether as a contributor, a reader, or a voter. What matters most is that you come back to health as soon as possible.

Encore une fois, bienvenue. Vous êtes certainement encouragés à voter, même si vous n'êtes pas sûr de participer ... Je souhaite que votre vue et le cœur réparent. Il est bon de voir vos mots à nouveau!

Quant à la bisexualité ne pas être un sujet choisi encore: Peut-être était parce que vous étiez pas autour de faire campagne pour elle?

Films pourraient être beaucoup de plaisir ... Je ne sais pas ce que je vous écris au sujet, mais il pourrait être beaucoup de plaisir. Là encore, la plupart des sujets pourraient être beaucoup de plaisir, ce qui est l'un des avantages d'être celui qui choisit finalement dont quatre sont en élection!

Cependant, vous choisissez de participer au colloque est juste - que ce soit en tant que contributeur, un lecteur ou un électeur. Ce qui importe le plus est que vous revenez à la santé le plus tôt possible.

I hesitated to include it as a choice for just this very reason... there are about a dozen or so bloggers whose potential entries for this category terrify me.

For that reason alone, I kinda hope it wins, even though I have no idea what I'd write about... I mean, there's nothing in bad taste about swinging, right?

    Oh I forgot to say...sorry to be so ignorant, but I don't know how to link people to this post or two the symposium once it's on. I will do my best though. Maybe someone will come and give me some remedial instructions?
Every blog post gets an assigned number that is displayed on the bottom, right under the comment box, under 'post' button.

If you include [post nnnnnnnn] (substitute 'nnnnnnnn' with actual number)
in any other post, it will provide a link to this post.

The same procedure works in reverse: After you get your symposium submission posted, copy your post's [post nnnnnnnn] and paste it in your comment to humorlife's post. That will give him a link to your contribution.

Hope, I didn't confuse you even more.

Hi Naughty! No, you didn't confuse me...exactly. I have seen those post numbers inside the brackets , but I have also clicked on some and the link wasn't hot. Wouldn't the link show the link (post) name, and not the number anymore if it was a clickable (or hot) link? I think that is one reason I am confused. Maybe we need to take this off post? I appreciate your help.

I'm not surprised to see Cravings/Addictions/Obsessions currently in the lead, since we're all pathological about reading each others' blogs.

Is it a bad sign that I don't know the meaning of Bad Taste?

Blog on, my friend!

I think the cravings, etc, will or would be a great topic.

You've taken this off-post, but I'll toss in my two cents: Often this site's links don't go live for hours -- if not days --- after they've been included. That's assuming you've copied the square brackets surrounding the nnnnnnn -- these guys --> [ ] -- correctly.

If nothing else, please post a note indicating that you've been able to work this out -- it throws a lot of people!

I wish I were pathological about reading the blogs... I am so far behind that I'm still commenting on the18th symposium, never mind the 19th!

As for bad taste... would a symposium on bad taste help you define your parameters? And again, I shudder to think of what folks here would come up with...

It seems as though a lot of people agree with you... and even if it doesn't win (I haven't checked the standings recently) it's popular enough that you'll see it again...

Pimped, and now I'll campaign for my topic by posting a link to my pimping blog, Crave Having A Cock In My Mouth That39s My Reason 20th Virtual Symposium. After all, who doesn't want to read about craving a cock? Oh wait, we all have our own personal preferences...

I voted for bisexuality but it looks like cravings/addictions/obsessions is on the fast track to winning this one. Should be a fun round of posts.

Looking forward to whatever wins. Sometimes the most unexpected topics can be the most fun to write.

Tally Ho!

*Laughing* Love it! I, personally, do not crave a cock in my mouth, but that's just my particular perversion and I applaud those who respectfully disagree! Thank you for pimping the symposium... looks to be another banner turnout!

I make a fine cheesecake with both cream cheese AND a seasoned graham cracker crust. Glad you like the topics... and "Cravings" wasn't one of my own. It was a participant suggestion!

Looking forward to reviewing your enticing pimping!

I agree... as I've said elsewhere, I have a staggering track record for NOT backing the winning topic,and I further find that topics suggested by other participants (as opposed to taken from my personal list) tend to do better...

And yes, sometimes the fun is in writing to a topic one would not have considered...
