The idea for the bloggers circle took a major step forward today, thanks to The Guardian. Matt Seaton, the editor of Comment is Free got in touch with some ideas for how we can develop the concept. As a result, I can reveal that:
the winner of ‘blogpost of the month’ will be able to post on Comment is Free on any subject of their choice (within reason, subject to Ts & Cs etc).
It’s a fantastic incentive and I hope that we will able to launch the bloggers circle later this month. With the support of the RSA and CiF, the bloggers circle can be an invaluable way of getting more profile for important but under-read blogs.

[...] UPDATE: Comment is Free has offered to allow the winner of blog of the month to post on their site – a terrific incentive to get involved http://blog.matthewcain.co.uk/bloggers-circle-expands/ [...]
That’s great. Obviously the fact that it was over a month ago shows how out of touch I’ve been. Where are we on this now?
We will be ready to launch in the next week. I’m just finalising a couple of details and will email everyone in the next day or so.
Great. Look forward to hearing from you.
