View Full Version : How Many Members Have a Blog
Other than CG I run a few other blogs though CG is by far the most popular (and my personal blog is shamefully neglected).
Just wondered how many other members here are fellow bloggers. If you are post your URL so we can have a look.
If you count writing on CG, then yea. :)
Other than that, nope.
Yes I do blog... all aren't so good at all. You can check out 2 of them in my siggy.. :P

good to know that :)
Seems there are many bloggers now
It wouldn't be so neglected if you posted once in a while :). It's the easiest way to keep track of you, Al.
Anyway I blog at CG and I'm launching my own blog soon :).
P.S. I'm going to want that blogging VB mod up soon so I can scrape a few visits in from these forums :P.

I,ve been meaning to start my own blog for some time. The thing is, the niches of IT, gadgets, software and so on are already full of others. It would be nice to be read, so that's probably the only thing that's stopping me.

Good to know that, but make sure you dont make on a free host, try to make a own paid hosted blog. :)
I tried blogging for like, two days, and then I just figured I didn't have the time to do it :P And I didn't have things to talk about, haha..

Was this meant for me?
And what's wrong with free hosts? Had a few friends runing one - unbeatable support, all the new versions of stuff like apache, php, perl and so on. And 99,9% uptime (really, i checked). It really depends on the host. You can find wonderfull free hosts and terrible paid ones.

I have an advice that you're not gonna use - sell your blog and do something more usefull.
Still waiting for an answer to my question above.

I disagree with amipatel_3001, I have mine hosted on a free host, and it's pretty reliable. I don't want to compare free host to paid host, after all you are getting things for free. So, I believe if you think your free host is good, so be it.
I think the free host that I am hosting on is excellent! I have not query nor complaint. It's by far one of the best, if not the best, I have seen.

http://www.hostmatrix.org/
I also have it there and its great. btw its also Al's community.
If we're talking about good hosts now bluehost (http://www.bluehost.com/track/shwaza/) is really good and though it appears that they oversell with cheap prices and lots of bandwidth/space they actually have great servers and quick support :).

Well, that's what exactly kadhal has said.
It is at Hostmatrix (http://forums.hostmatrix.org)
p/s: a piece of advise, make sure you read the TOS and FAQ thoroughly first before jumping into the wagon and start asking for a free host. It won't take you 10 minutes just to go through those list. As I say, it's important.
Oh yeah and of course if you want free HM is great. Al's the admin by the way.

So would I, the problem is members only seem to vote if they have a blog. Not sure how to change that. I'm guessing the one 'No' vote is you Case.
