It’s way past due to deal out the link love on the week’s best humor and blogging links. I’d like to start by congratulating Lord Likely on his award for Performancing Reader’s Choice 2007 in the category of Best Blog you’ve never heard of.

Also, thank you kindly for awarding me the Golden Cock of Excellence. I am deeply honored. I shall treasure it and polish it daily with the finest lubricants… Perhaps more than once daily.

But enough about me. On with the Humor and Blogging links:

SEO Humor → SEO 2.0’s Tad Chef dukes it out for the championship of best headline writer.

Personal Development Humor → Lord Likely tells you how to Help Your Bloody Self.

Cell Phone Humor → Mark Dykeman posts the Top 10 Reasons Cell Phones Have Become Essential for Modern Living.

Writing Humor → Brent D offers Writing Tips.

Crude Humor → The Smiling Infidel teaches some Vocabulary.

Blogging Humor → Naomi Dunford notes 6 Kinds of Commenters.

That’s it for this week’s Humor Blogging links. I’ll try to stay on top of things better. Of course, most of my ideas come from Humor-Blogs.com.

If you’ve found (or created) any great links, please feel free to drop them in the comments or email them to me via my contact page.

As a result, awards for being funny interest me. The finalists for Funniest Blog (use this link to vote this category) are:

• Violent Acres
• Dilbert Blog
• I Can Has Cheezburger
• Waiter Rant
• Overheard in New York
• The Sneeze

I am a fan of Violent Acres and Dilbert Blog (Duh. How much am I stealing his 2 of 6 Rule of Humor idea?). I’m not so much a fan of Lolcats (I Can Has Cheezeburger). I’ve read Waiter Rant a few times and enjoyed it. The other two finalist blogs are ones that are unfamiliar to me. I’ll make it a point to check them out over the weekend.

Personally, I think the funniest blogs are The Mattress Police, The Ominous Comma, and 15 Minute Lunch, none of which are finalists, but all rank well in the Humor-Blogs.com directory, and rightly so.

I’m also pleased to see that The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely is a contender for Best Blog You Never Heard Of (Use this link to vote this category). Kudos to a fellow Humor-Blogs.com member.

I’m highly interested to know what you think of the finalists for Funniest Blog. Offer your review or overview. Who gets your vote? What do you like or dislike about these sites?

Bonsai Blogging: How to fail with Social Media is a “what not to do” primer on using social media to promote your blog. It’s also a refreshing change from the usual meta-blogging fare that avoids humor like the ebola virus. Patrick tells us:

Bonsai Blogging is the art of miniaturizing traffic by blogging into an isolated container. This method has proven to be efficient for stopping growth, allowing you to fail with dignity.

Here are a few links I’ve found over the last few weeks that I really enjoyed, and I hope you will as well.

Art & Business → The Abundant Artist tells us about The Self Inflicted Curse: Starving Artists. Let’s not forget that writing is an art form as well, and heed the advice here. The difference between success and failure is usually whether you choose to have a head for business or not.

History → You may have seen the documentary on 1968, but have you seen 1968: Still Awful 40 Years Later.

Winter Driving → The Frogster tells us to beat him over the head with an Ice-scraper, or some such. Apparently, HE is the crappy driver when it snows.

Religion → Fabby documents one of the Great Moments in Biblical History.

Personal Life → Dan’s Blah Blah Blog tells us about the worst morning possible.

Childhood → Johnny Virgil relates an outstanding childhood story of daring and stupidity. This is Johnny at his finest.

Skepticism → Diesel Calls BS when he sees BS. It’s just in his nature.

I will try to keep up with a more vigorous posting schedule in the future. Please let me know if you would be interested in helping by contributing a guest post by contacting me.

Holidays → Pope Terry tells us how holidays are like political systems.

Syndication → The Ominous Comma tells us what an RSS is and how it can be used, in hilarious fashion.

Reviews → The Skwib goes under the microscope with the Humor-Blogs.com reviewers.

Reality → Man has sex with bicycle. Sometimes fact is funnier than fiction. Thanks to DerekE for bringing this to my attention. Then I remembered I had already heard about it.

Meta-Humor → Scott Adams explains how humor isn’t all that popular, except when used as a “seasoning.”

Meta-Blogging Brian Wallace tells us how to keep from being eaten by the evil blogging machine. For some reason, that reminds me of lunch. It was del.icio.us. I tried to stumble it but I couldn’t find the toolbar button. Go figure.

That’s all for this week. Tune in next week when I actually post something.
