More Metaphors to Explore

June 7, 2007 by Liz Leave a Comment

The Metaphor Project: Wow! Even More!

What’s Your Metaphor?

This is the third set and I’m so enjoying reading these metaphors. I always knew that bloggers were teachers at heart. The variety and the depth blows me away with enthusiasm for how well we know the subject.

Thank you for all of the submissions to The “What’s Your Blogging Metaphor?” Group Writing Project. Some of you are new to me and I’m so enjoying this introduction to you and your blogs. Some are familiar faces and it’s so exciting to get to know a new part of who you are.

Check this new batch out and pass them along to your readers. The more ways we look at blogging the better we’ll be able to explain it when we need to.

  • Kayaking as a Metaphor for Blogging at Loosely Speaking—A VA’s Blog
  • A hug, metaphorically speaking at MamaBlogga
  • Blogging is like dancing on top of an iceberg, and other Metaphors at J.T’s Productivity Blog
  • 20 Blogging Metaphors – Rock Throwing and the Universal Monkey at marketing neophyte
  • Blogging metaphors at Roberta Ferguson
  • Blogging Metaphors at Lena M Holmberg
  • Blogging Metaphor (s) at Transition Capital Management
  • The Blogosphere is a Virtual Time Capsule : Another Viral Meme at Orbit Now!
  • Dexter’s Memetic Laboratory at Spooky Action ·

Let’s find some more.

Because this project spread so quickly and not all links are making their way to me, if you’ve written a metaphor and you’re not on the list, please email me a link. If you’ve already done that before 10pm CDT on June 6, please forgive me and send it again.

Be a Part of the Project

So, what’s your blogging metaphor? Join the project. There’s still time to be a part – I’ve extended the list to 10pm Chicago time (GMT-6hrs.) June 11th the Monday I return from NYC. So you have plenty of time to take part. Here’s the original post for the background — the whats and the hows.

C’mon tell us. How would you explain blogging to someone who knew nothing about it? What’s your blogging metaphor?

    Thanks for recognizing my post. This has been a great project and I have found a couple new blogs to visit just through reading these metaphors. I hope they keep on rolling in.

    This is a great writing project, Liz. I’ll post my own entry this weekend. In the meanwhile here is another entry I like Blogging Metaphor: Blogging Is a Large City with Hundreds of Small Neighborhoods not yet on your list, but it does belong there. 🙂

    All my love,
