The Atheist Blogger

No More Mr. Nice Guy has posted the 90th Carnival of the Godless over at his blog, and it’s well worth a look. This is the second time I’ve submitted something to the carnival, and I’m pleased to report that my article proposing an online atheist book club got through.

Speaking of which, we’re still working on the chatroom, and people can still post suggestions in the forums. Voting will be on May 1st.

On a further unrelated note, I won’t be posting as much for the next 3 weeks as I have revision followed by exams. I’ll still write the odd article, and if people want to sent stuff in (even short stuff) I’ll gladly post it for them. Wish me luck :D

I found about the “Carnival of the Godless” a few weeks ago through various atheist blogs. For those who don’t know, every 2 weeks an atheist blog is chosen to host the carnival. Links are sent to the carnival and the best ones are chosen to feature. On the day of the carnival, the hosting blog posts all the links with descriptions. It’s a nice way to get good blog posts recognised, and for the hosting blog to get a bit of attention.

2 weeks ago, I thought it would be a good idea to submit a blog post of my own. I thought about submitting something controversial (like the one about Muhammad or Jesus), but instead I chose the post that really started the site off; “101 Atheist Quotes“. This post alone accounts for a small percentage of my daily traffic. It has the most comments of any of my posts, the most views (over 65,000 so far), and probably the most trackbacks.

To cut a long story short, it got featured in the carnival: Carnival of the Godless #89
