Friends, bloggers, countrymen (and people in other countries like Canada and the UK), lend me your blogs… 
No really, lend each other your blogs 1/20 for the 16th Yakezie Blog Swap! 
The topic is:  How to raise a millionaire – developing your child's entrepreneurial aptitude 
Sign up here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtkV3jUA99VvdDFnQWRxeVJnWmxsazdXVHVRczdEelE&authkey=CJDy7ZQG&hl=en_US&authkey=CJDy7ZQG#gid=16 
All challengers and members are welcome to join in. For those of you new to the game, here are the basic rules: 
1. Sign up by Tuesday 1/17 
2. I will email everyone when partners are matched up. You can start writing a post on this week's topic right now so you can swap easily later on. 
3. Schedule your posts to go live on Friday 1/20. It is best if you post at the same time as your swap partner. Make sure to have a link to each other's posts in the intro. 
4. Post your links back in the signup spreadsheet. I will create a roundup post from those links which you are encouraged to post as well.

I think I want to do this and I think I understand what it is.  Would I basically write my post on the topic as if I were writing it for my own blog, except mine would be posted on my "partners" blog, and vice versa?  Would or could this be labeled a guest post?  Could somebody post a link to an example of a blog swap that has been in the past?  Thanks!

You all did so good with this swap – it made hosting a breeze.  Thanks to all who participated.
