What is a blogathon? Blogathon is for a group of people staying up 24 hours to blog. so dmb blogathon is such an event for the dmb members. What should I know about DMB Blogathon? you don’t have to stay all 24 hours if you don’t want. the IMPORTANT thing is to participate!! the goal for blogging is to ENTERTAIN! it’s not easy to stay up that long. so we will probably have several categories you can post under. here are some ideas - item of the hour (the topic everyone can talk about or take photo of) - jokes (one at a time) - games (screenshots of an online games we play together) - photos (picture of you or your daily life) - web finding (entertaining resources you find arond the web) - misc (anything else fun you can come up with) we will also have a chatroom at the same time. after the event, we will also vote for the best blogger, best entertainer (in chatroom or whatnot), best participants (esp. those who stayed up 24 hours) best photographer, best searcher (for web source, jokes, games etc.) all will be rewarded with dmb bucks.
