Blogroll

What!?!? You're getting rid of your blogroll?

Not so fast, no.

We are getting rid of the static blogroll in order to introduce not one, nor two but three directories of links.

1. Recommended stories

We will have a reincarnation of my long lost sideblog. If you go to the old culturekitchen home page, you will notice a sidebar with short blog posts. The sidebar is not coming back per se, but I can't wait to go back to pointing to you the good, the bad and the ugly I stumble across during my daily perusing of the net. These new posts will be now all indexed in a "recommended storylinks" page.

2. Recommeded blogs

We also have the recommended links directory back. Almost a year ago I started writing short reviews of the blogs I enjoy. If you go in a little while (I am still re-indexing the links) to the weblinks directory, you will see the thousands of hits I have sent the way of blogs like Republic of T or Women of Color Blog. It took me almost six months to rebuild the directory, but finally I can resume my blog reviews.

3. Links Directory

In order to maintain our mission to promote other bloggers and to create a strong networking relationship with our peers, I am happy to announce that culturekitchen will not have a static blogroll anymore. In its place we are creating a directory of links to the different blogospheres we belong, as well as including a list of resources and other important places on the web. And for this part of our networking puzzle, anybody who is a registered member of our site will be able to suggest a link for inclusion in our directory.
