It's been a year already when this portion of my blog went on Hiatus. Interesting Blog of The Month is an Interview-formatted portion in my blog. It is done in 3 consecutive ways. First, I will CONTACT the bloggers and ask their permission if they're willing to be featured in my Interesting Blog of the Month (IBOTM) portion. If permitted, i will ask the blogger a series of questions to be answered. The INTERVIEW is not done orally or verbally, instead, it will be done written as if the featured blogger is answering a questionnaire. Before, i make use of MyBlogLog.com messaging system to communicate with that blogger but since i am not that active in that site, i will try to contact them through facebook (if any) or we'll use the Blogger's commenting system. Then, the final step is to POST it. All i do is i copy the entire interview and paste it in my blog. But before i make contact to any blogger, i SEARCH first and look over different blogs to see if they are qualified. So what are the qualifications to consider a blog as The Interesting Blog of the Month?
First, it is not boring to read every details,from the first up to the last word of his/her blog post. It is something Informative. It is something that give us new discoveries. Entertaining. It is well performed and visualized. Not too much lacking of information and not too much comprehensive.
And of course something that will took readers attention and offers enjoyment in reading.
this PORTION is not a CONTEST or a competition so as to prove BLOG PROFESSIONALISM
I do not have prizes or any material things to give away for the certain blog I've chose. This is a MATTER OF APPRECIATION. Blogging is the process of sharing thoughts, idea, and knowlegde
And who am i not to share of what i found interesting right?
Now this is the interesting part of this post, Let me have a short recap of our Previous batch of Intesting Blog Awardees. From the top, here's INTERSTING BLOG OF THE MONTH BATCH 2007-2008. Let's have some words from them(taken from their interviews)

NISHA of "Nisha's World and Baby Alisha" : "Of course, i’d love to advice other mothers that they should use blogging as a great way to share their opinions and experiences.

Its one year since i started blogging and its amazing how the world is a visitor to you right to your home, through your computer. Its love and kindness what they have in their hearts for each other, irrespective of age and culture...

REGINA of "Regina's Family Seasons" : "I think the key to successful blogging is having good content on your blog.
