The Friday Five

[ysabetwordsmith]

thefridayfive is a weekly community that presents a list of 5 questions each week.  You answer them on your blog, then post a link in a comment under the questionnaire post.  It's a great way of getting to know people, plus it keeps your blog active.

This week's questionnaire is about flowers. 

The community is always looking for suggestions of questions to ask.  You can submit a set of 5 questions on Dreamwidth or on LiveJournal.

Oh, this seems like a fun way to make sure I post something at least once a week! Thanks for the suggestion!

Yay!

I'm happy I could help.

There are a bunch of communities on Dreamwidth that are cyclic, active on a specific schedule. Most of those are either daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly but some have their own pattern. So if you're looking for a way to keep your blog active, think about what frequency you want and then look for communities that match.

The one drawback is that most of them don't put that timing reference in their Interests, which makes them hard to find. I had posts for Annual and Monthly ones on reddit_refugees that I want to repost here.

I'm kind of hoping that the influx of Cohost refugees will encourage more folks on Dreamwidth to make better use of Interests and Tags.
