Are you interested in launching a blog?

I am, I feel that a lot of discussion I've engaged in could be centralised in one catch-all location. I also visit lots of other blogs and can bring their fascinating links to the Machine Nation's attention. It would be a good blog.

I feel that with Riadach As Gaeilge, the Ard-Taoiseach, youngdan and Kate P as bloggers, the Machine Nation may hold its head high in the blogosphere.

Thank you for your support. I also think that you would make a great blogger. It would be very interesting to hear your views on life.

http://www.sosblog.com/en/ this wasn't here before was it ,couldn't find a blogging thing on forum nation when i loooked

you forgot to open access to the blog forum (blog list thread) again

i already have a blog but ill try this out, i couldn't find a free mutliblog before ( or atleast one where you could have different tabs for say personal /work blog on the same site)
.

can this be integrated into the site.

ah looked at their forums no go on integration,

ah no there must have been updates since then, you can synchronise your forum to your blog and get automatic usersblogs, create machination multiblog auditor and try it out.

it under user management >sychronization



but you could make a machinenation multiblog with multiusers etc that would get ya in the blogosphere while maintaining a forumnation theme.

The blog forums here should be open now.. if anyone wants one they are free to have one but maybe it's worth going with something lost is talking about up there if you're into blogging.

Synchronise forum to blog? So if I create a multiblog in sosblog you say I can link/integrate it into this site in some way? I can't picture it other than a link unless a forum opens into an actual blog or something. .. I'll create a multiblog there now and get back to you with the info ... (unless you want to come too )

What category will I open it under? Sciences and knowledge? Art Culture and Leisures [sic] ? Society and culture ?

Any preferences for colours etc.?

society and culture i don't think it matters that much

Any preferences for colours etc.?

nautica blue you can change all that stuff later just get to the nuts and bolts of adding synchronization.

Someone got there before me ...

I'll get back to this later...

come on mods sort this out, tell us what happens when you press the synchroniz button

Machine might have to add a few fellas to his blog first ... Ok I'll go in and have a look. Any last words of advice before I do?

do you have admin access? who's machine who's flouncing? charters are no good if you can't ge t your mods on the same page, make a new one if you don't, you shouldnt have to add, im presuming synchronize will do it.

I have Admin access, yes. Why don't you set up one and get admin access too? it's easy. The only way I can see it integrating with the forum so far is as a link - I have pressed all the synchronise buttons and nothing has happened. I've looked a bit at the sosblog site above for info on blending it with the forum but can't see anything as yet.

Anyone who wants a blog there I believe it can be added to the current one there - the Admin will set you up and you will receive an email notification. Do you want to be the first, lost?

Thanks Auditor.

I'll be second but not now - have to go to work. It all looks very nice. Is it possible to have different sections to the blog? How does it work? Oh I'm excited about this!!!

Can we add it to the links somewhere on the latest discussions page?

You know what? I think this place is great - book clubs, blog-spots, games, background music, breakfast bar and the sibín (maybe they should all be linked on the latest discussions page too) lots of tea; are we particularly progressive?

I would like my 2 added and hope to have a weekly effort from next week.

I've just set mine up - haven't time to do any more than that.

But as we set them up (click on register on the top of machine's page, rhs), maybe we could be consistent in the webaddresses? I used katepmachinenation so that it can be connected with here.

Will have fun playing with it this evening.

can you stick in a quick blog kate or have you time? good idea keeping it consistent with the names. We are like the cedar lounge revolution guys now...

thought it would be easier to see the effect with all the users already registered here

okay set up forum.... your right nothing happened when i entered my admin and password... damnit :/


i registered on the machine blog

Machine has jumped ship and set up his own blog, the fecker. Apparently it's a multiblog thingammajig as yet untested and unexplored. Anyone interested log on above.

Anybody for the last few choc ices?

quit the nonsense, have you got requests to join that blog, have you authorized them

What nonsense? What authorized? I currently have two members - yourself and Kate P - do I have to authorize ye now too? I didn't see any buttons...

if you are around for the next few minutes will we see if I can authorize the two of ye?

You're dead right there lost - I had to give you administrator rights. Now you and Kate can go there and blog away to your hearts content. You'll have to moderate yourselves as Machine has threatened again to jump ship but he won't though - the money is too good here.
