Dave Hingsburger hosts the October edition of the Disability Blog Carnival, at Rolling Around in My Head, here. It's short but Dave puts a lot of context into his collection of links. Thanks Dave!
Did you know that the Disability Blog Carnival started in October 2006? So we just passed its sixth anniversary. Back then, it was twice a month, and often jam-packed with links. Well, the online climate is different today--blogs have to compete for attention with so many other venues and formats. I know I'm not blogging much nowadays, and that seems to be true for a lot of folks. Submissions for the carnival have been sparse for a couple years now, and some editions never even post. I think, therefore, that the we've come to the end of the run for the Disability Blog Carnival. The existing eighty-four editions remain a strong record of disability blogosphere for a vibrant six years.
If there's anyone who'd like to take over organizing the Disability Blog Carnival, perhaps to restart it sometime in 2013 or beyond, I'm glad to help, just holler. (There are several other blog carnivals on disability themes still happening right now, too.)
