Blog, Blog, Bo-Blog

Can I Get Rich On A Salary participated in three personal-finance blog carnivals last week. And by the way, I found a new personal-finance blog that is heavier on consumer orientation—authored by an experienced blogger whose writings I had already enjoyed on other blogs—so I recommend you check it out: The Smarter Wallet (tagline: "Money Tips, Consumer News and Product Reviews To Improve Your Finances").

[Editor's Note: In case you are not familiar with blog carnivals, a blog carnival is a multi-blog event in which a number of bloggers aggregate their articles within a certain theme or subject area into one post. The "host" of the carnival writes up the post on his or her blog and includes links to the various articles. Hopefully, this helps readers as they get a "one stop shop" of articles. I post a weekly recap of the blog carnivals in which I have participated—and try also to cull out a few articles that I'd like to share with you here.]
