Announcing the Carnival of Peer-to-Peer Lending

Now that I have some spare time, I’ve been trying to get a few projects off the ground. One of those projects is launching a Carnival of Peer-to-Peer Lending. Today, I can finally say that I’ve made some headway. I’d like to announce the Carnival of Peer-to-Peer Lending. The website currently is a little short on information. I’ll be adding to it over time. I’m also using it as an opportunity to learn a new skill, the Joomla content management system.

I’m looking to post the first carnival on January 5th, which will include all the articles submitted up until December 30th. The plan is to post on the 5th and 20th of each month, while making the deadline of submissions the 15th and 30th of the month (28th for February). This will give hosts a few days to put together a Carnival, which in my experience is unique.

If you are a blogger and have written a recent article about lending money on peer-to-peer services such as Prosper, Lending Club, Zopa, Kiva.org, or any other similar site, I suggest you submit through the form here. This is a good way to highlight your writing and get a little traffic. I am looking for blogs to host the carnival in the future as well. If interested, please contact me.
