I'm starting a little project to give my brain a little coding exercise.

I'm working on a blog aggregating site that focuses on promoting Filipino-owned blogs.  It's a work in progress, but may be found at www.pinoyblogmachine.com.  Basically, the idea is this: create a central site where people can get their fix on Pinoy blogs.  Quite simple.  People who own blogs may ask to be added to the directory, and we'll pick up their posts automatically from their RSS feed, say every 4 hours.  Or something like that.  The post will then be credited back to the rightful owner with links, etc.

There are a handful of sites that do this currently, but I wanted to try to create a cleaner, sleeker site.  Plus, it's good practice to keep my PHP skills up to date.

At this time, I'm looking for blog owners here at Vox and elsewhere who would like to volunteer and have their site listed on PBM.  There really is no work on your end except giving me your permission.  I'll use your site/s to seed PBM with content and for testing purposes as well.

Thanks in advance!
