International Blog Like a Pirate Day: Sept 19

September 13, 2008

Ahoy me mateys. In less than a week, on September 19, we’ll be celebrating International Talk Like a Pirate Day. I propose we convert the day to Blog Like a Pirate Day!

To truly distinguish yourself in today’s cluttered blogosphere, there is only one option… writing in Pirate.

Fortunately, this special day falls on a Friday, which is the perfect day of the week for a casual and fun topic like this one. So, regardless of your level — junior staffer, senior management or awkward tweener — let’s all band together and blog like a pirate for one day. At the very least, we will all benefit from a quick refresher on the lost romance language of Pirate.

I know my good blogger buddy, Leo Bottary, is onboard and will be helping to spread the word this week. But to all my other blogger buddies and loyal readers — especially Drew McLellan, Kami Huyse, Gavin Heaton, Luc Debaisieux, Paul McEnany, Todd Defren, Darryl Ohrt, Mark Goren and all others — I ask that you help spread this important public service announcement and blog like a pirate on September 19 too. Will you join me and Leo on September 19 as we turn Talk Like a Pirate Day into Blog Like a Pirate Day?

    Nice, Drew! You’re a natural! Can’t wait to see what you write. I am thinking of stretching the agenda and writing about the topic of pirates, in pirate of course. :)

    Hey Dave! All the best with BlogWorld next weekend. You’re either working 20 hour days this week or it’s the calm before the storm. Either way, a few pirate posts stemming from BlogWorld would be awesome! Thanks.
