Welcome to blogging!
I just opened this up for the time being to talk about the upcoming feature, answer any questions or whatever.
If we end up not needing this down the road, we'll get rid of it...but it could serve as a Technical support forum for your blogs.
Anyone have any questions?
You have no idea how excited I am about this thing.

If you are being serious...
A blog is basically a "web log". It can be considered a journal for a lot of people, but there are millions of blogs out there that deal with anything from celebrity news, gossip, entertainment, weather, gadgets, life, writing, reading, comics, etc. A lot of these top blog sites making buttloads of money every year.
Two blogs I read (just as a sample)
www.engadget.com
www.geek.com
Basically with a blog, you write stuff. Entries...what you think about...something.
Here is my personal blog: www.amikelife.com
I write about whatever I feel like, my friends and family check on it and interact.
There are a lot of people who are great writers, or have cool ideas for blogs and they can gather in a ton of readership and fans. Blogs are basically the internet world we live in. Social community networks and blogs. |

Youd be the first, I imagine. I foound tat site cause a friend I hadnt talked to in YEARS posted something about me, and I was googling band info and found it. I had to join to get in touch with him, and there you go. Dont have much time, but its good to unload random thoughts every now and again. Ive read through yours as well, back when you were posting about that band you went and saw.... crap, I forgot who..
