Bloggers Build Cabin on DIY's Blog Cabin

Posted on October 5, 2007

The DIY Network has a show called Blog Cabin where bloggers helped build a cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains. The Blog Cabin website let site visitors vote on how to design the cabin.

DIY says, "From February until early April, 2007, DIY Network.com invited visitors to vote each day on 13 design areas for a future cabin to be built in the Great Smoky Mountains. Thousands decided on such areas as the floor plan, roof, countertops, even the front door. The results are here, and so are the build projects."

Knoxnews.com reports that the cabin was "designed, discussed and tweaked" by bloggers. They also say the show has a big web following.

It looks as if we are reporting this a little late because some episodes of the show have run already. The winners of the show will be announced on October 28th. The show's website is located here. We like the name of this show - maybe they will build another Blog Cabin in 2008.
