Okay - I admit - the blog system that we have integrated in the forum isn't exactly what some people wanted when we installed it last year. It is great, but I know some of you wanted blogs that were not directly integrated with our forum.
As a result, we are rolling out a new platform this weekend. It is called thinnerblogs.com. It isn't quite ready just yet, and I haven't rolled it off of the staging server yet, but you will all soon be able to setup your own personal blog on our new site (if you want).
The system is powered by WordPress Mu (a higher powered version of wordpress.org). It is very similar to BlogSpot, which I know many of you use. You will be able to setup a blog like
http://yourname.thinnerblogs.com. It won't have any advertisements, we won't charge you any money - it's all you!
I'll update this thread when it's all ready to go!
