Wow. I haven't had to post a reminder for Carnival of the Liberals in quite a while. Unfortunately though, we've only had seven submissions to date for CotL #62 which is scheduled to run this Wednesday, April 9th.

I'm hoping that's because people have been intimidated by this week's theme of "new media". So I'm going to postpone the carnival until Friday, April 11th and extend the submissions deadline through Wednesday to give everyone a chance to get their posts in.

You can get all the facts on this biweek's theme at A Revolution Of One, but in a nutshell all posts should either include "new media" or be about "new media". What's "new media" mean? Easy. It's simply any media content created by people and not large centralized content providers. It's you vs. Time-Warner, CBS, NBC, et. al. And while there's certainly a wealth of it about these days it also brings up a lot of issues. Should citizen media creators be more or as trusted than the networks? What about net neutrality and how it fosters the creation and distribution of new media?

Whether you create it, distribute it, consume it, or just write about it, please get your submissions in by the end of this Wednesday. As always, the blogcarnival.com link is your friend. It's things like these special themed editions, and the amazing loyalty and dedication to quality of our bloggers, that make Carnival of the Liberals much more than just a once-every-other-week link-fest.
