It’s Weekly Geeks time again and I’m a little behind. Last night was my 10 year high school reunion, so we’ve been out of town and just got back tonight. This weeks challenge is going to take some time too. We’re going on a scavenger hunt.
Our Weekly Geeks #8 theme is SCAVENGER HUNT.
I’m going to list below several keywords for you to find in other weekly geeks’ blogs. Your challenge is to find as many of the keywords as possible, in as many Weekly Geeks’ blogs as possible. Fun times!
So there’s a total of 49 keywords to find and each weekly geek adds their own keyword at the end. So while there is only 49 words now, there are already 10 participants who have added words, so now we’re up to 59 words. I need to catch up. I’m going to post this now, but I’ll keep updating it all week as I find the words. As I find the words, I’ll link them to the blog I found them at. It should be interesting to see what I can find.
