A blog ring is a continually growing community of bloggers, all displaying a small banner or code on their blogs which connects their blog to the next in the ring. Blog rings are easy to join. All you have to do is sign up for one, become approved, and paste the code on your blog. When you've joined it helps to give your blog more exposure in the blogosphere.
The Northern Irish blog ring is powered by Ring Surf, and every blog in the ring is connected to two blogs via the code - one through the "previous" link and one through the "next" link. Each blog in this blog ring is also listed on the Ring Surf homepage.
If you've got a blog. If you're living in or blogging from Northern Ireland, you're welcome to join.
