Ubercarnival: If you want your hosted mela to be included in N.Z.Bear’s Ubercarnival, do the following -
1) If the host blog is registered in the TTLB Ecosystem, and has a working RSS/Atom feed, you can tag a Carnival entry post to be picked up automatically by including the following exact phrase in your post’s text, replacing [Carnival Name] with the name of the carnival and with ÜberCarnival as an active link to http://www.truthlaidbear.com/ubercarnival.php:
“[Carnival Name] can also be found at The Truth Laid Bear’s ÜberCarnival.”
The Ecosystem scans will notice this text and automagically add your Carnival entry to the ÜberCarnival. The one caveat with this method is that if you don’t put the tag at the top of your post, and your RSS/Atom feed doesn’t provide full text of your entries, the tag may not be included in the feed, and therefore won’t be found by TTLB.
2) Add it manually, by using the submission form here:
http://www.truthlaidbear.com/addcarnival.php
The manual approach will still require that the Carnival entry you are submitting includes a link back to the ÜberCarnival page, but it is more forgiving as the link can appear anywhere in the post (the validation step for the manual page accesses the post directly and does not rely on RSS/Atom feeds).

Hello Shanti, Good to see your site is up and running again. While you were away, abhishek, let a comment at BlogMela.com, requesting a slot to hold BBM. He has not mentioned any date/week, so I guess he would want the next available slot.
His details are :
Name:abhishek
Email:adeydas@gmail.com
Wesite:http://abhishek.weblogs.us

Do you know if Abhishek’s blog is back up? Will he definitely do it this time?

hi, i would be delighted to host a blog mela as well. my blog is at http://abhishek.weblogs.us/. thanks… :beam:

Abhishek, how about 15th December?
Posted by: shanti at September 26, 2005 12:39 PM
Hello Shanti,
As Dynamic RAM delayed the publishing (of 22nd Sept) , Akshay (29thSept) has moved publishing his BBM edition to 6th Oct. It appears BBM publishing dates are messed up
Looks like mela schedule will have to be updated or India Genie (who was to publish on 6th oct) could consider being moved to an open slot in December, so that other dates get corrected.
My take : The nomination call should be put up on time every week by all BBM hosts, even if previous BBM edition is yet to be published. This way, nominations will roll in properly every week, and delay in publishing a BBM edition will not impact the next one.
Thanks

Hey,
Who is hosting the blogmela this weekend? http://www.realwomenonline.com/images/smilies/huh.gif
It is supposed to be me as per schedule, but but then last week indiagenie hosted it and between indiagenie and me, there is selva, who has not put up a nominations post yet.
Could you let me know if its me and I will put up a nomination call!
Thanks
Neelakantan:huh:
Posted by: neelakantan at October 22, 2005 1:48 AM
Neelakantan, can you take over Selva’s spot? I am a little irritated with hosts who book ahead and then forget their slot. I think we need to get the Mela going close to its regular time frame regardless.
I will post an updated schedule tomorrow.

hi,
Have already put up a nominations post. Could you put up a post for the bbm then? Since its a late call, it can do with all the publicity.
