Goodbye Carnival of Education....FOREVER??!?!?!?!?

Oh no! The Carnival of Education is gone, and I don't think it's coming back!

It's definitely been a while since the last one - a month? Six weeks? - and it seemed like no one knew what had happened to it.


Ever since, I've been ducking over to BlogCarnival.com periodically to check in and see if it was back yet.

Today, to my dismay, I found this alarming little nugget:


Current status ¤ This carnival listing has been discontinued.

What?!? No more Carnival of Ed? A travesty! I propose someone restarts it (or, really, a new version) stat. I'd do it but not that many people read my blog so it seems kinda pointless.

So who should take the lead here? If you have a suggestion, leave it in the comments, or just start haranguing fancy blogger types to get one of them to take up the cause and sally forth for the good of the students, the teachers, the blogosphere, and the world!

(The carnival above is clearly alive and hoppin'. That's what the Carnival of Education needs to be again! Photo credit to {meagen}!

Good call. I've also been missing the Carnival of Ed.--I was a very regular reader.

If you have any thoughts about getting it restarted, keep us posted!

Yeah, that's where I'm not sure. Other than hope someone decides to take it on. I'll keep thinking about it, though!

Could you restart it? No love lost from me - it was always so overwhelming whenever I opened up the page - SO many different links to read and just...oh. so much. But other people seemed to really like it, so I am surprised. Wonder what happened.
