The Blogaton Season 2 begins: Blogaton 18

Change is imperative for a well-functioning of the system. Change happens and it happens faster than an eye can blink. If you are not part of the road-roller of change, you are part of the road. And so we have began the road-roller of Blogaton Season 2. After 17 successful blogaton, The Marshal Vipul has taken the run as being Marshal and have handed over the charge of Blogaton to veteran bloggers (Did you participate in more than 10 Blogaton? Drop a mail to Marshal fast before the bar increases)  with me beginning for the Month of March.

Obviously as the tradition goes, we need a topic for Blogaton and by jolly we need a big topic, a great topic to start the run. So, turn those brainy wheels of yours and come up with a great topic to write about coming March. Not so fast, there are rules to be followed...


Please go through the following rules before suggesting or voting
  • Each member can suggest only one topic.
  • The topic should be general in scope, so that more and more Blog-a-Tonics can participate.
  • If you like any suggestion, VOTE for it rather than giving a new suggestion.
  • If you like a suggested topic but don't like the wordings, still VOTE for it and alongside suggest a new title for it.
  • In case you have already suggested a topic but find some subsequent suggestion better than yours, you are allowed to vote for it. But this can be done only once.
  • Rather than criticising the suggestions made by others, kindly give better suggestions.
  • Give your suggestions and votes in the comments section of this post.
  • Do not embolden your comment using HTML bold tag.
  • Please keep these points in mind to make my job easier.
P.S. I retain the right to discard any suggestion in case I find it similar to some previous Topic of the Month or too narrow in scope.

Blogaton is an event for the bloggers, by the bloggers. The more bloggers run, the more fun it gets to race, so make sure you share this post, your thoughts on Social Networks, please use #Blogaton on twitter and it will be picked up by the auto-stream on the sidebar.

So bring on those thinking caps and lets find a topic for Blogaton 18, lets roll....

    At Blogaton we keep the freedom to the bloggers to go on with the concept... but yes 'Change' does sound good.

    @Gireesh
    When you participate in more than 10 blogaton, you become veteran, then u have to write on the topic on Blog a ton here itself. :)

    So topics so far,
    1. Change: 2
    2. Fresh Start: 1 (yes this can be a residue for change, right?)
    3. March: 1 (Thats smart actually...)
    4. Deception (This has not been used before.)

    So... thats it for now... clocks ticking, we got 2 more days to go.

  13. Taking into consideration the fabulous topics that comes to light with a fresh beginning and looking forward to a grand participation from the bloggers, I would like to suggest a synonym for 'change' itself, thats 'Transformation'.

    There are many many many things you can write on Change, sadly janata has answered. So be it... Change it is. The date of Blogaton will be announced shortly.

  21. I guess March is smart topic. Change seems like the same old topic.

    Money can lead to interesting posts.

    My vote: Money
