It's Short Lived | The Coffee and Tea Festival

Alright, so here's the deal. Back in the day, Blog Carnivals where a big hit. They were a great way to get a weekly/monthly/daily/whatever dose of your favorite topic. I have participated in several - from small business to coffee - and I enjoyed them.

I thought it would be a great idea to bring it back - the Coffee and Tea Festival that is. I think I was wrong.

So, the festival is done with. Here is why:

1. I do not have time to get around 10 or so posts each week
2. We were only getting 2 or so submissions per week
3. Posts about cats, dogs, toilets, beer, sales, etc have NOTHING to do with coffee (getting spam submissions like crazy!)
4. No readers!

There is no bitter feelings here at all. I just want to bring better content to A Thought Over Coffee and the festival is not something that is worth it anymore.

If you are interested in reading any back editions of the festival, you can check them out here. There is quite a bit out there for you.

Here are the final posts that I never got to. Go check them out!

Matt presents Now Serving Up....The Best Coffee & Beignets In The World! posted at Actual Food For Thought.

Linda Mundy presents About Kona Coffee posted at LJM's Kitchen.

If you want to give this festival a go on your blog, leave me a comment and we will get you set up! I still think the idea is good, just need someone to run with it!

Hey, I'm really sorry that you didn't get very many submissions for coffee. You know what though, I really appreciate you posting my blog. I like your site too! Keep up the good work!

Hey Matt..

Thanks for sending the link! If you want to host a week two worth of the festival, let me know.

It is a cool thing, just takes more time than I have!

I have received several new posts so keep checking back for the next edition.
