RenaisNet

I'm looking for five bloggers or other website owners to join in an informal promotional network. This will be a mutual promotion group, no financial obligation, just quid pro quo with a half hour a day or less spent promoting each other's sites and our own. «Or less» because each of the things you'll do, should be a thing you're doing anyway to promote your own site, it will be just a matter of adding a few clicks and a couple of minutes reading and writing about the other members blogs as well.

The first Big Thank You is to Scott who has produced a great simple theme that is simple enough for users with a little skill to modify to make their own. It's still going to be the core for several RenaisNet sites.
