The Carnival of Homeschooling is now, I believe, one of the oldest of its kind on the internet. Most people have moved from this old-school style carnival to linkies. By ‘old-school’, I mean old in computer/bloggy terms, which is about three years, I think, although this Carnival has been around for about five or six years. I am speaking of the sort of carnival where participants email their links to the blog-owner, who then copies and pastes them into the post, with comments if desired, or a theme if that’s what the blog-host has chosen. Now most people use the linkies and let the participants do the work. Easier on the blog-host, but the reader gets no context or personal commentary, either.
