Urth After the Rain (self promotion)
A little bit of self promotion.
I'm setting up a ContantCon game at one of my other websites, Urth After the Rain. Pseudo-Elizabethans exploring a world where all the foreigners look like Erol Otus drew them. Over the next few weeks I'll be trying to describe the mood or flavor, and looking for players to submit characters. I'm honoring the FLAILSNAILS conventions, so bring whatever 1st-3rd level character you like. Behind the screen I'll be using a simple version of D&D, so I'd prefer characters from simpler versions of the game, but that's up to you.

Hellenistic Frankenquest
Jeremy Duncan over at Dandy in the Underworld is planning what he describes as a Hellenistic Franquest--some sort of crazy mashup of Runequest, Stormbringer, Elric!, Call of Cthulhu, along with odds and ends from Pendragon and WFRP. It will be a location based game, like Jeff Rient's Caves of Myrddin game. Jeremy is planning on setting it a generation after the death of Alexander the Great, but with more of a swords and sorcery vibe than a straight historical approach.
Stormbringer: The Tale of an Egg
Time: Saturday 15th October 21.00 BST (20.00 GMT, 15.00 EST, 14.00 CST etc)
Hagar the Skeletal, the Beggar-Mage, wants the shell from the egg of a Dragon Turtle and is willing to pay any number of reckless, foolhardy and downright crazy adventurers to fetch it for him from the desolate, barbaric and chaos-tainted land of Yu. A one-off adventure only, soon to be appearing in print in Fight On!. (If it comes out in the next week DON'T READ IT.)
Rules: Stormbringer 1st Edition, beginning characters. Pre-gen characters available, but if you want to dice up your own, let me know by e-mail and send me a copy.

Legacy of the Bieth
Allandaros over at Legacy of the Bieth is offering ConstantCon gaming, with some mutated version of OSRIC and Lamentations of the Flame Princess. I think he's honoring FLAILSNAILS Conventions. Check it out.

Tales from the Hotel Kaladarian
Head on over to The Lands of Ara, where Carter Soles is plotting and scheming for a new online-only ConstanCon Lands of Ara campaign called, "Tales from the Hotel Kaladarian." He's hoping to get the game rolling this October, using the Swords and Wizardy White Box rules. Some house rules and guidelines are already up over there. Oh, and he's abiding by the FLAILSNAILS Conventions.
Links
If you are participating in ConstantCon and have a blog, tell me about it in the comments so I can add it to the sidebar. If you have an awesome blog, but aren't playing or running ConstantCon games, that's super, but not really relevant. Tell me all about it, but do so through email, google+, or over here.
ConstantCon Clearing House
This will be a clearing house for ConstantCon games. If you've got a game you want to promote, let me know at least a few days in advance. I'm already stupidly busy with grad school, so I need at least a little bit of lead time to make sure your game gets promoted. If you'd like to help run the thing, let me know at cosimovecchio at gmail dawt com.
In the meantime, check out Zak S's advice on how to tell people about your game. He's also got a nice FAQ and collection of tips on how to run a google+ game.
