Well the idea is very simple. It's basically a site where you can create a journal-like atmosphere. Or a diary. Html is not necessary unless we spend money on it. Here's a link to my blog to give you a basic idea of what it looks like.

They've also recently upgraded the entire site located at:

Take a look at both and let me know.

I did not know "BLOG" either...
Thank you for the 2 BLOG SITES, to check out.
I checked ! That looks interesting Chris..
Thank you, Aunt Ling

Dear Chris,

I looked at both sites given, and I must say that your idea looks VERY do-able! Again, I'm not too sure about how blog sites attract an audience, etc., but, I am for getting started any time you wish. Please tell me what I can do to help with this, and, perhaps you should be our "blog-master."

Sincerely,
Rush

Works for me. I primarily want to see what improvements were made for the free side of Blogger. Most things like "Post a comment", "Post a link", and photos come with the paid side of blogger.

Blogs attract an audience much like any other site. Alot of times people post diary type entries revealing their innermost thoughts and desires or whatever. The difference between a Blog and a standard website is you can post several times a day on a blog. With the Yahoo group, you update as you go but some of us have daily digest rather than individual. Plus you can put the link to the blog and/or your website in your signature. That way whenever you conduct daily business or conversation with people, the links are always there for people to click on. You might recall I have three links in my signature.

Bottom line, more free publicity, the better.

Chris

Dear Chris,

Exactly!

Again, my meager skills are at your disposal...

Sincerely,
Rush
