Wednesday Whimsey - Take the HomeschoolBlogger Quiz!

1:00 AM, Feb. 1, 2006

Earlier this week, I found a fun quiz over at Amber's blog!  She's gotten almost 50 comments already so I know that people are having a great time with it!

 

It's How Well Do You Know Your Fellow HomeschoolBloggers?  So far the scores reiterate the fact that nobody's perfect - no one has gotten all of the answers yet! 

 

Go take the quiz though and comment here to let us know how well you did.  If you happen to know of any other fun quizes, mention those in your comment as well and maybe we can highlight them on another Wednesday Whimsey.

 

Thanks Amber for sharing your quiz with us.  You know how to have fun!

 

The first five to comment will receive the "Featured on the Front Porch" button. To make it quicker for us to award you your button, we'd like to ask you to include your email in your comment in this format (so that it will not easily be grabbed up by those email-seeking programs) - yourname-at-yourserver.com ... or you can email me letting me know you commented (my email is below: just replace the -at- with the @ symbol!)

40... worse than I should have gotten. I second guessed myself a few times. but then again got some lucky guesses too!

I got an 80. I was sure I knew the laughter question but got it wrong. The frog question had me stumped.

I scored a lowly 40 points, and should have gone with my first reaction . . . go with your gut!

Anyway, yesterday, Donnabooshay, at Quiet Life had a neat Word Cloud created from her blog. It somehow pulls out the most interesting words from your own blog and adds from your friends list and creates a cloud of random words . . . that will mean something to you!

You can create your own Webblog Word Cloud at http://www.snapshirts.com/custom.php

You can save the image and print it out, before you continue to a page that will customize a webblog t-shirt that you could purchase, if you wish.

Nifty!

Well, I got a 20 <> but since I have only been blogging a few days I was just guessing. Fun quiz!
