If your blog had a flavor, what would it be? This is totally just for fun. The thought of a blog having a flavor just popped into my head (in that space where my brain is supposed to be). I took 10 well-known blogs and wrote down my first reaction for what flavor each one is.

ProBlogger: cupcakes

shoemoney

ShoeMoney: Easy Cheese and Chicken-in-a-Biscuit

skelliewag

Skelliewag: Frankenberry cereal

boing boing

Boing Boing: marshmallow peeps, all day and all night long

copyblogger

Copyblogger: roasted veggies

seo 2.0seo 2.0

SEO 2.0: Nachos Kielbasa

dosh dosh

Dosh Dosh: Large Sushi boat

45n5

45n5: Ham & Cheese sandwich

techcrunch

Gaping Void: cigarettes and Guinness

So, what flavor is your blog? what flavor do you think Remarkablogger is?

    Clever! Although, I’m not sure Brian Clark will appreciate being veggies. He might prefer the cigarettes and Guinness :-)

    As for me, onmoneymaking.com is like fresh salad, topped with the best dressing and marinated chicken you’ve had in your life.

    Then again, I’m biased :-)

    Very ingenious. Ok Martin, I have to ask….what flavor would Lifejotter.org classify as? Honest opinion.

    I like the Dosh Dosh one by the way.

    @Jon, I happen to like roasted veggies. Much tastier than steamed, boiled, or raw. Good for you and no fat, like Copyblogger. And I think your “flavor” is a perfect match for your blog!

    @Bunk, I’ll give it a shot: Life Jotter is a really good dish of Pad Thai.

    Wonder what would be John Chow’s blog?

    This is nice. I share your vision about GapingVoid. What flavor is my blog? Maybe it’s like chewing gum: you don’t get anything from it, but you still enjoy chewing :)

    Very ingenius, Michael, but now it seems you will have to classify everyone’s blog by taste. You must find a way to monetize with this service.

    Once your service is still in Beta and you are giving free samples, what is the flavor of mine?

    @Guilherme: Orange Sesame Chicken. :)

    Lol… since I’m vegetarian, let’s make it an Orange Sesame TSP dish :)

    Guilherme, eww! Goodness, man, make it cous cous or tempeh, or something!
