Is doing a blog much different to posting on threads? I'm sure if I did a blog I'd be repeating everything I'd already posted :confused: |

I have a blog - saves me a fortune in phone calls and time in emails. I keep a blog which my family and UK friends read. Sometimes I repeat stuff from here - then I just cut and paste :whistle: |

Been doing my blog since 2004. Not moving it though :nah: Thought the link was in my signature but that must just be BE. I'll stick it in my profile here as well. Don't bother reading it if you're easily bored though. I do tend to whitter on a bit :whistle: |

Go to your profile, and you will find it in there. You can see other peoples blogs by going to their profile. |

For anyone who hasn't looked at the Blogs yet, or who is unsure about what to do... Creating a Blog It's time to create one! To start, select the Preferences tab at the top of your forum. Under the Profile Options menu there is a link called My Blog. Simply click this link to start the process. Enter a Title Every blog deserves a good title, and your blog is no exception! A creative name can go a long way and even interest other users to start reading it. Of course, the title of your blog is totally up to you. Enter a Description A good description goes a long way, as it tells your audience exactly what kind of blog they'll be reading. Is your blog personal, business related or about a specific topic? Whichever route you decide to go, be sure to describe your blog accordingly. About you This optional field can be used to enter a bit of information about yourself. Part of the fun of keeping an online blog is having your audience know a bit about the author. You may choose to enter your real first name here, what country you live in and even some of your interests. It's all up to you! Users may also leave this field completely blank if it makes them more comfortable. Permission Preferences There are just three more settings to take care of before your blog is created. These settings allow you to set who can view your blog and who can post comments to your entries. The first setting toggles the ability to show your blog to guests. This means that visitors to the forum who aren't logged in or registered will be able to view your entries. The next option toggles the ability for members of the forum to post comments on your entries. Setting this option to 'No' will mean that no users of the forum can comment. The last option will add a box of who is reading your blog (just like the active user list). You can go back and edit these settings at any time in case you change your mind! Posting a New Blog Entry Once you have finished setting up your blog, you'll be shown right away what it looks like. There's only one thing missing - posts! Using the Post New Blog Entry link you can start adding content to your blog. Posting an entry works just like making a regular post on the forums. You can add a title, enter some tags, and if you've edited your settings with the Change Settings link, you'll also be able to sort your blog entries into their own categories! |

I've just checked my settings and I've blocked guests from seeing it but I've allowed for comments so I don't know why you can't comment in there. |

I now just get complaining texts when I've not updated for a while. To be honest mine's as much for my benefit as anyone else. It's interesting to look back and remember when something happened. It's a great way of not having to speak to people in the UK if I don't want to :wink: |
