One potential abuse I’d like to nip in the bud, however, is the possibility of posting random whatnot to other peoples pages, making false blogs. Or, gods forbid, spam posts to every forum and blog at once.

I’m personally not too interesting in blogging myself. I’ve always preferred the give-and-take of a forum to being able to stand atop my personal soapbox in splendid isolation. But opinion varies considerably, and I remember that Jody and Eri in particular used the blogs in DamnTikiWiki.

Note to self: explore retrieving their blog posts from the DTW data archive.

BTW, nobody’s posted more than one post on their blogs, so you’re not yet seeing how it lays out multiple posts. Sort of a “newspaper pyramid”, which I think is pretty attractive.

I see how you read a blog but how do you start one?

I use it a lot because it’s better organized than the main “black background” page.

It used to be accessible with a tab at the top, but now you have to slide into it via your “profile.” I’ve got it bookmarked now.
