Bloggers Coast to Coast

So we've all heard the various blog communites floating around, be it "H-Town Hotties" "Midwestern Muses," or perhaps the "East Coast Elite?"  We lust over conferences and retreats hosted in far away places such as California or Salt Lake, which we only dream to one day attend.  Ever feel left out, like you can't find other bloggers from around your area?  Want to meet up with like-minded people in real life?  Well, boy oh boy, do I have a treat for you guys!  Presenting, drum roll please...

Bloggers Coast to Coast



View Bloggers Coast to Coast in a larger map

It's easy! Fill out the simple form on my Coast to Coast tab, and I'll get you added to the map as quick as a cricket!  To find out who lives in a particular area, just zoom in and click on the blue marker. There you'll find a name, location, and blog link.

I hope to make this a comprehensive directory, so would love each and every of my followers to participate!  In order to spread the word I'm asking those who participate to either mention the Blogger Map in a blog post, tweet, or Facebook or add the button to your sidebar. Thanks!

Whispering Sweet Nothings 
 

For those you concerned about privacy - if you'd rather  associate with a nearby big city instead of the suburb you live in, that's fine. What better way to connect with fellow bloggers from your neck of the woods?  Also, if you live outside of the U.S. you can still be added to the map, your pin will show in zoomed out view!

**Idea curated from Rose A La Mode. 'Cept mine's free :) Linking up here & here Hope you're all as stoked as I am for this!
Attention Ohio Bloggers!

Leigh Anne shared this wonderful oppurtunity with me. Cheesecake Factory & Shopping?  I'm in!

I found you on Meg's Mingle Monday and I love your Coast to Coast concept. I'm new to blogging and up in Toronto, Canada but its super exciting to see everyone spread out on the map.

This is such a great idea. Right now, my blog is anon, but in a few weeks when the veil comes off, so to speak, I'll be back!

Glad to find your blog! I've been looking for some new blog buddies lately.

Lucia said...

Hey Shane!

This is such a great idea! I'm all signed up, and I'll try to spread the word! :)

Thanks so much for your lovely comment on my blog. And you know what is funny? I clicked on your link over at Illy's and was looking around your blog and thinking how cute it was! :]

I would love to design your blog, if you decide to update in the future! :] How fun!

Many Blessings,
Lucia

RAY J said...

LOVE this!

I found out via Angie up above there, and am thrilled to find some bloggers in my nearby vicinity - I get a bit jealous of all the H-Town girls as I can't seem to find any blogging community in my area like that, let alone any other bloggers!

Here's my post:

nice posting.. thanks for sharing.

Asilia said...

This is awesome. As an anonymous blogger, I would rather not do this, but I would like to post the button to spread the word. It is a great idea. Can I post the button even though I would rather not join?

The Goddess said...

Thanks for this great idea! I've added the button to my blog and hope to bring more traffic to your page. However, my link on the map (Prestwick, Scotland) does not link to my blog... links to the airport here in town! lol

I noticed the same for the blog in Aberdeen, Scotland and one in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I'm sure this is just a glitch on your end, but in case you weren't aware, just giving you the heads up. Thanks!
