I should have done this 4 years ago
Again I am speaking of organizing my blog entries into a coherent structure, with searchable categories and indexing capabilities. The article directory script I have installed: HERE is ideal for this. The post editor is virtually identical to the one we use to create our posts here on Blogit, with...

One of the things I don't like about Blogit
When most people arrive on Blogit and begin posting, it's all they can do to figure out how this interface works. I was no different in that regard, I didn't fully comprehend how it all works until I had been here awhile and did not realize some of this site's shortcomings until I had been here a...

My favorite blog templates - a tutorial
If there is one thing that has come from my time on blogit that leaves me questioning my sanity... it is my obsession with web blog templates. I'm about to take a blog template to a major industrial application for large asset sales, and built upon a Wordpress back end. Of course I had to mess with...

Does anyone use Gimp?
If there is one area that I have been remiss in learning what I should be learning, it is in image manipulation. The time involved in the inherent learning curve was the single biggest reason (or excuse) that has stopped me up until this point from teaching myself this stuff. Instead I got into a...

Has anyone tried the new Blogit selling feature?
I don't really have anything to sell in the format available for listing items here on Blogit. After following the process of listing an item for sale, I realized that it was not a file download format as I assumed but instead an article format. Where an individual interested in selling some type of...

Can someone explain this about Blogit?
Did I miss something? I went to my "Write" page to check new comments and noticed a new link on the page. It now looks as you see below: You have no items listed. List an item now! Start a new blog - List an item for sale - View new blog comments... when did this appear and what is it? The answers...

The Blogit Spammers
I don't know about you but I consider a comment such as "nice post" or "thanks for sharing" or a simple smiley, to be nothing more than spam (with some caveats). Not so much that I have anything against short comments but it seems to me that if someone leaves a comment such as "nice post" on dozens...

The scary world of the public Blogasphere
If there is one thing I will always give the creators of Blogit credit for it is the innovative vision that brought us this blogging concept. It is to my knowledge unique to the internet, the fact that it has survived since its Beta days back in 2002 until today, a testament to its validity. Many a...

The future of Blogit
I don't want to sound negative about how this site is currently set up but I feel we have come to a point where some healthy discussion about the future of Blogit may be helpful. One of my other blogs has just advanced 3 places in the top 25 rankings with just 3 clicks. What does that tell us? There...

I need another blog template like . . .
I need a bad case of scabies... But I couldn't resist. As per usual I set out to make the grandaddy of all spiffy blog templates, along the way my brain began to hurt. My ideas didn't work out, I compromised, changed my mind a few times and ended up with a plain look. The sad part of all of this is...
