The All-Important Intro

**NOT HAPPY WITH YOUR DESCRIPTION?**

There is now a blog where you can let us know, we appreciate you haven't yet had a chance to contribute. Click here

...BOB is like 'Updated Spaces' except that there's a 70% chance you'll come across a space you'll like, compared to a 0.02% chance if you actually use 'Updated Spaces' ...

Welcome to Blogs of Brilliance (BOB) HQ... the greatest space directory in the history of MSN spaces.

Unlike other directories, this space directory is different in that we don’t pathetically campaign to have each and every space on the entire Internet linked to from this site. Popularity is not our goal. Want proof? We don't exactly tell you who we are...

Our aim is to have this space as a place for you to go to when you are bored, rather then try to find intelligent life through the ‘updated spaces’

Let's be honest here… we have all gone space surfing before. And, at some stage, after the fifteenth link is followed and exited, we have all looked up in despair and wondered “why?” HOW can there be so MANY pathetic, stupid, ignorant people out there? How?

BOB is not committed to destroying each and every boring space… although it is our ultimate goal. However, we ARE committed to bringing you a list of spaces which you can safely visit without tearing your hair out in frustration of 'da wordz pplz use 2 try 'n be kewliz.'

Not every single space here will take to your fancy, and not every space takes to ours. However, that is not the aim of this space. Our aim is merely to supply you with a list of links to people with an IQ greater then 90, so that you will either get a good laugh, or a good brain workout, depending on the nature of the space.

Below is a bunch of guidlines we generally consider when examining a space:

- Regularity of updates

- Legibility of font

- Decent English.

- The 'personality' of your space

- The amount of 'copy and pasted' stuff in your blogs.

Having the following may work against you

- Tweak UI.

- Media player playing ‘music you like.’

- A space that merely has tutorials and you ‘offering to help people.’

- Using ascii code in large doses

HOW TO NOMINATE OR APPLY:

Simply leave a comment below in this blog (or email us at bobhq_manager@hotmail.com) and leave a description. If you are stupid enough not to leave us a link, well...

**Note that if you are already linked to, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING ELSE!!!**

You are welcome to give us a description

Briefly tell us how you would describe your (or the space you are nominating) space

We are looking for reasons NOT to add people. And trust us, there are many.

Each space will be visited eventually, and we will leave a comment letting you know if you have been successful. We do get around to everyone eventually, so if you don't get a response within a few weeks, take the hint eh?

Note that our decision is FINAL. You cannot choose the description given, although as mentioned you have a chance to contribute to it.

Help us in our mission... before it is too late...

POST A COMMENT ON THIS BLOG TO APPLY...

*note that old comments may eventually be deleted for practical purposes

	Noelaniah发表: Um... I would like to apply, please :). I go by either Herman or Headless Henrietta, and my space is at http://pontificating.spaces.live.com/. I update frequently and alternate between fiction, observations and what can only be described as Streams-Of -Consciousness blogs. Please check it out. I don't really mind what description you give me should you choose to add me, as long as its nice... Thanks for your time, Herman 11 月 10 日
	Kyle发表: Wow, I know so many people on here. I'd like to 'apply' if I may. Reasons why? Well, I'm not big, clever or brilliant, but what I do have to offer is my love and compassion for mankind as a whole. How do I do this? With my zany MSN-themed games like 'Blog-hopping' and the 'Neverending Story', starting a Box Cult with about 15 members across the globe, initiating a petition to get rid of text speak (signed by over 50 people) and also helping people with their spelling. It's a bit light-hearted, designed for the casual reader and I'd love feedback on it! Join the Box Revolution today! 10 月 11 日
	CyrJosh发表: First, I'd like to nominate Padded Cell Confessions. It's updated regularly, and has been for a while. I put Spaces in a SPACES folder in my favorites for the same reasons you list them here. This one is funny, diverse and has a personality. Second, I'd like to nominate my own Space, if possible: Don't Panic (http://parachuteadams.spaces.live.com). I update on a regular basis, and try my best to avoid spelling and grammar errors. I'm a Douglas Adams/Hitchhiker's fan (...hence the theme), but I take that theme seriously. I try to approach things with a positive, satiracle mindset. Nevertheless, I am not happy-go-lucky. When I'm not being Mr. Glass-is-half-full, odds are I'm griping about something in a logical way, and including plenty of sarcasm. Maybe I've made an accurate self-examination, it isn't easy to talk about myself in this way. If I haven't, I still hope that you enjoy what's at the other end of the links in this comment. PS. I also have the space below, Altered Spaces, in my favorites, if that counts for anything. 10 月 9 日
	WilliamsWesley发表: This sounds like a directory I'd like to be a part of. Unfortunately I do have a lot of "How To" guides on my Space, but the main content is not those guides. I blog about a multitude of topics and attempt to update my Space at least 5 times a week (usually weekdays). Anyway, my Space name is Altered Spaces and I reckon it's worth a link, but it's your decision. 9 月 26 日
	♥♥发表: Just stopped by to have a look. Very interesting and great idea. Lisa 9 月 21 日
	TimmonsFhinn发表: As a random act of blatant self-promotion, I nominate myself. "lost nova scotia girl" is for an 18+ audience only.... I'd rather not have my space deleted, so please keep that in mind as you visit. 9 月 18 日
	Michelle发表: Hi,this is Michelle from Shanghai,CHINA. I nominate. http://Omichellemichelle.spaces.live.com Man is the only creature that refuses to be what he is.And that is me. Update regularly. Feel free to visit my space. Thanks. Michelle Hong 9 月 15 日
	Force-15发表: Seeing how the Blogs of Brilliance HQ is determined to create a library of Windows Live Spaces that are actually worth viewing, I've decided to post an appication for my awesome site, Oldphartztown: The home of Mr Intensive Care Bear. As you can tell from the title, I've posted some comics about a suicial bear who likes to kill himself as brutally as possible. The main focus however is on my 'blog' enries (I despise that word), that are also good for a laugh and well-written to boot. Comparing Oldphartztown against your guidelines: > Regurlarity of Updates: I've got more important things to do besides updating my site ever 5 minutes, although new blog entries are usually added more than once a month. Comics are also added wherever I make the time. Quality over quantity bitches. > Legibility of font: No highligting, super-sized font or over-formatting here, just predominantly plain text. The colour sceme is said by some to be sore on the eyes, but I beat the Christ out of them ages ago... > Decent English: There are few spaces in existence that are as well-written as mine, thanks to today's public education system who are hell-bent on dumbing-down humanity. Find any mistakes? Feel free to point 'em out. > The 'personality' of the space: Blunt, offensive and politically incorrect, I aim to shock people as well as get a good laugh. See for yourselves. > Plagiarised material: I have only once posted material in my blog that wasn't mine, although it was properly referenced. Not on online chain-mail quiz in sight. Other issues: > I do have the Tweak UI PowerToy running on my site, although I have not noticed any significant slowdowns when viewing it. > Content is aimed towards individuals who are 13 years and older. Little kiddies should best stay clear... > I don't really care what you write as a site description, but if anything inappropriate is written there, you'll get a response in writting (suggestions for a new description, death threats if warranted, etc). > Yes, I have linked to your site. Looking forward to a response. E-mail back or post a comment on Oldphartztown when you get around to it. 9 月 3 日
	Flix 发表: I was nominated, but my space is set to private. Sorry to disappoint folks. It's a great read though, or so I've been told... 7 月 21 日
	Manager发表: Copy and paste. A wonderful tool. http://ficklety.spaces.msn.com/PersonalSpace.aspx http://houseoflush.spaces.msn.com http://jossesspace.spaces.msn.com http://mrsmiths.spaces.msn.com (this is what happens when people don't put nominations in the correct blog...) 7 月 18 日
	Max发表: That has got to be one of the most suspicious set of comments ever. What type of person leaves their full name on a comment in an MSN space AND no recurring link? And there are two of them in quick succession? I smell a rat, oh grand master BOB. I would tentatively suggest that those two people are simply COWARDLY PEOPLE IN DISGUISE! But hey. That's just me. Also, since unlike SOME people I appreciate this is merely a blog to recommend spaces with, I would like to nominate Smoke Industries as a worthy contender for your listing. It is truly unique, informative and interesting. Thank you. 7 月 17 日
	Alex Natale 发表: I agree with Mathew bring back Bens Rock Shack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bye Alex 7 月 17 日
	Mathew Evens 发表: I am very upset that you took "bens Rock Shack" out of BOB. It was the best site in BOB. Please, Please, Please put it back in BOB soon. and his newest Blog is the funnyest ever. here is the Site just in case you forgot what it was: http://grand-master-50.spaces.msn.com/Default.aspx?owner=1 Put it back in BOB very soon!!! Thanx Evo 7 月 17 日
	Amanda 发表: i nominate: http://talialikeyayxx.spaces.msn.com.. i hope you get the votes you need. 7 月 15 日
	StokerDaniel发表: I'd really love to be on your blogs of brilliance page, despite the fact that I may well be a little to harsh to be allowed. I frequent the word "cunt" in many of my blogs, so perhaps a warning should be attached. The link is: www.spaces.msn.com/hiddenrealm I update about twice a week at good times, once a week at bad. I type correctly, indeed I hate people with a vengeance who do not type correctly. It grates upon my anger-bone until I am whittled down to the pissed-off nerve. Either way, I think you should add me, despite the frequent sporadic bursts of anger which I blast upon harmless B-list celebrities such as Paul Daniels, Pat Sharpe, Keith Chegwin and Arnold Schwartzenegger (I could beat them at anything, you know). anyway, shit... This email is getting too long - Just add my offensive site (named Piss Piss Piss) to your lists, or I will come after you with a screwdriver. Yours, Daniel Stoker (A.k.a SPICEMAN) 7 月 14 日
	Joel发表: Oh, and while you're about it, I know it doesn't strictly qualify for posting here, but I'd like if you don't mind for you to consider my alternate Space, which is a (slowly) growing compendium of my short stories, most of which are simple vignettes either to help realise a character or a place or whatever. The URL is http://azukarlegend.spaces.msn.com 7 月 14 日
	Joel发表: Okay, I wasn't going to put myself up for this, but I would like a little more readership; hence I humbly submit myself and my Space for your consideration. Name: Azukar URL: http://jsyfonline.spaces.msn.com I don't mind how you want to describe the Space, whatever strikes you most about it is fine. 7 月 14 日
	Andrew发表: I'd like to nominate Talia's Space - Fizzer. It can be found at http://talialikeyayxx.spaces.msn.com 7 月 14 日
	Andrew发表: Oh yeah, I changed the name of my space from 'My Space'. I s'pose it may have sounded dull. 7 月 14 日
	K.T.发表: Nice idea, I've checked out alot of the spaces. BUT, according to you: *Below is a bunch of guidlines* we generally consider when examining a space:** - Regularity of updates WELL, some of the ones I checked out haven't updated in a month, maybe its time to give them the "boot". 7 月 5 日
