Weekly Geeks #8 – Scavenger Hunt

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.

About Jackie 3282 Articles
I am a 30-something SAHM with two adorable boys and a supportive husband who is very tolerant of my reading addiction. I love to read and easily go through about a dozen books a month – well I did before I had kids. Now, not so much. After my first son was born, I began to take my hobby of reviewing a little more serious and started Literary Escapism to help with my sanity. I love to discuss the fabulous novels I’ve read and meeting all the wonderful people in the book blogging community has been amazing.

  1. Alright, I’m done for now. I’ve gone through so many blogs that I getting cross eyed. As of right now, I’ve found:

    keywords: 49/57
    different bogs: 37

  2. The Scavenger Hunt is done and I ended up finding 58 out of 61 words in 43 different blogs. I think I did a pretty good job.
