We would like to invite everyone to join in on a new weekly meme on MomDot called “Small Talk Six!” Since weekends are generally a little slower around the blogosphere, we thought this would be a great way to have a quick, fun, interactive meme.
All you need to do is grab one of the graphics below for your “Small Talk Six” posts and your sidebar. Then make a short (or an elaborate) post on your blog in response to the assigned topic of the week (see list below). When your post is live, come leave your direct link on Mr. Linky and then go see how the other participants responded on their blogs.
You can respond to each topic with a list of 6 words, 6 phrases, 6 sentences, 6 paragraphs, or 6 photos. Get the idea?

Hope to see you all there and maybe you’ll find some great new blogs to read in the process!
I read some great ones..Small Talk Six is my favoite blogging day
the small button wasnt showing up for me so i fixed it
here’s the new code:)
sorry i dont think it showed up..
I had to change the double quotes on mine to make it work. For some reason the ones posted here were formatting strangely. Just delete their double quote marks and re-type them. Should do it.
My button grabs aren’t working either, in my sidebar or my post.
My first one is up!
