We are up and running :)

If you want a DR1 Blog, go get one at the sign up page below.

http://www.dr1.com/blogs/signup.php

Active blogs will be added to the menu on the left hand side
of the main blog page.

You can blog about anything you want, unless it's illegal.
Yes, we reserve the right to delete your blog if we or any
law enforcement agency has issues with the content.


By the way, any stupid posts on the above will be deleted along with that
posters ability to have a DR1 Blog.

e.g
  • What's a blog?
  • Can I show naked photos?
  • What about a "I hate DR1" blog?
I think you get the idea.

Current blog: http://dr1.com/blogs/playavista/

If you find any problems, please PM or email me, thanks.

Now go and get blogging!!!!!

Also...

You need to register in order to get one.
You cannot use your message board username and password to login :)

Are you sure? That's what I did and it seemed to work.

I mean without registering. The username and password database are completely different.

Yes, you can use the same username and password, but you need to register them first on the blog sign up form.

Does that make sense?

Can you create a permanent link from the main page to a user log-in? That way when I got my blog in favorites I am one step away from signing in.

Not sure what you mean?

Right now it goes straight to http://www.dr1.com/blogs/login.php which is the login page. With one click you can go from the home page to this page.

I don't want compare you with the blogspot.platform, but I will since that is what I am used to. :) At the top of any blog on blogspot there is a link for members to log in. You provide access via the dr1 homepage....I just would like a link on my blog page that goes direct to the log-in, not just dr1.com. Err, hope this makes sense.

If you had a blog prior to February 15th, I have some bad new for you, it's not working anymore. The upgrade corrupted entries, so they basically became useless. Fortunately we only had a few entries, so it was not that bad, just very
frustrating. Yes my blog got burned in the mess as well.

What now?

I'm happy to say we are back 100%, the new version is working great.
You will need to open up a new account if you want a blog.

Check your Hotmail bulk email box. Make sure Hotmail is not filtering out the email.

Hummmmm :nervous: you are now on my "safe" recipient list! :)

Thanks.......

Go to Google, type in "blog" and you will be enlightened.

A blog is a personal diary. A daily pulpit. A collaborative space. A political soapbox. A breaking-news outlet. A collection of links. Your own private thoughts. Memos to the world.

Your blog is whatever you want it to be. There are millions of them, in all shapes and sizes, and there are no real rules.

In simple terms, a blog is a web site, where you write stuff on an ongoing basis. New stuff shows up at the top, so your visitors can read what's new. Then they comment on it or link to it or email you. Or not.
