Here is a great idea by Martin Rundkvist! I will contribute and I hope a lot of you do too.
Archaeoblogging Project: Your Nearest Archaeological Site
Here's an idea for bloggers with an archaeological bent. I'm thinking of putting together a one-off carnival about people's nearest archaeological sites. You go to the nearest site you're aware of, snap a picture of it and explain (in as many or few words you like) the site's significance and life-history in a blog entry. Then you send me the link, and when I've got a fair number, I put them together in a link-fest, plug it on Reddit & Co, everybody votes for it and we all get a traffic spike. You don't need any formal qualifications to contribute. Sound like fun? Please leave a comment if you're interested.
