What are your plans for New Years Eve? Thinking about going out for a night on the town? Maybe hanging with some friends over dinner? Do you have a yearning to do something that you have never done before? If the latter sounds like you, might I intrigue you with a New Years Eve challenge?

Last night, while scanning the Twitterverse, I caught this tweet from my friend Wayne Sutton.

Within minutes, I inquired about the challenge. "What are the rules?", I asked. Adria Richards, a fellow blogger and challenge initiator, relayed the following on her blog, entitled, "Contest: Write 25 Blog Posts On New Year’s Eve. Win Stuff! #25blognye":

Yes, 25 blog posts in 24 hours is a pretty epic event, if you were to ask me. However, it is a challenge that will be tons of fun. Think about it, you get an opportunity to push yourself into the new year, increase your blog's pageviews, meet new people, and win prizes. How great is that?
