Some Thoughts About Posting in the Blogging Forum

Welcome to the new Blogging forum. The general rules of AW apply, which mostly boil down to "respect your fellow author (blogger)". Jenna's first welcome post sets down the other rules to follow.

The only thing I want to add is please link to anything you mention from someone's blog and only paste snippits if necessary. I'm sure the bloggers will appreciate the traffic and the telling their story in context.

If you share the URL to your blog on this board, please expect other bloggers to blogroll it. If you don't want to be blogrolled you should say so. If you are concerned about linking to another blog, PM the owner, they might not get back to a thread if you post your question there.

I encourage you to visit your AW colleages blogs and comment there, as well.

Start threads! This is your forum.

I look forward to a lively discussion here, thanks for coming by.

Also, since the transition to the new host meant we lost a few posts, please check to see if yours is gone and repost, please? I know there were some links I hadn't captured in time for my blogroll. Thanks!

Sure! Thanks for asking about it.

It's the list of blogs that is like a 'roll call' sheet down the right side of my blog. Wikipedia has a nice definition, but there's a discussion about deleting it because it's already in a list of blogging terms. I've logged in and supported keeping the page. I like being able to just Google something and up pops a nice Wikipedia definition

Hope that helped.

Just had another thought - if you post your blog here and it might contain adult material please let the readers know - you can use 'movie ratings' or NSFW (not suitable for work) whatever fits - but do be considerate that someone might open your blog at work or from a shared home computer...thanks!

The decision was made by the board owner, Jenna Glatzer to put it here, but I'll pass along the suggestion (I surely don't object!)

She has a blog too It's in my blogroll.
