Blogs - Who's Using Them?

mdvaldosta · 04-20-2008, 11:14 AM

Who's got a blog here at MA? Actually I know the answer, just me but I hope many of you decide to use this really exciting feature. It's an excellent opportunity to keep a log of your project car or random thoughts, and we'll be deeply integrating it into the forum so that posts there will stream right in with forum posts and you won't miss a beat. It's almost like having your own forum that only you can start threads in. Some of the features of our Blog system include:

Easy to use. Your blog comes automagically installed once you register an account here at Modded Autos. It uses the same familiar post editor you're used to making new threads with.
Fully featured. Editing is done via a WYSIWYG editor and you can manage attachments, comments, trackbacks, RSS feeds, draft posts, categories and anti-spam control. You can setup subscriptions to other member's blogs, etc.
Customization. You can assign a title and description for your blog, you have your own easy url to access it. We have planned features to allow for further customization, such as colors and layouts. You can setup categories and do pretty much anything that you'd be able to using stand-alone blogging software.

There's really many more neat features and functionality I didn't go over, but I do encourage you to look into setting up a blog with us. All the cool kids are gonna be doing it.
