the blog dilemna

Posted by theFrontSteps on April 14, 2008 at 1:18pm

As many of you are starting to realize, as am I, the blog format on this new site is not what I'd like it to be. Until they (Ning) change that, there is not much I can do. I'm going to continue switching things up over here to find the perfect solution, even if that means going back to blogging exclusively on thefrontsteps.com and using this for what it is...a social network, but in the meantime expect changes.

Thoughts? I want to hear them.

I'll feed those posts here, and continue to promote this site as a social network, because I've discovered (through trial) this site doesn't facilitate an active blog. It's better for being social. It just makes no sense at all to give up all that great traffic we were getting on .com, and create double the work here. This site will still be here, so feel free to socialize, forumatize, networkatize, and blogatize to your heart's content. I'm going to just step back and watch all of you do your thing. Open mic, have fun.

Yes, there are some big changes going on with your Editor. My main focus is again selling real estate, and that means some things have to go. So to keep track of what I'm doing, sfnewsletter and theFrontSteps.COM will be the best place to find me. But don't worry, I'll be active on this site as well, but not nearly to the extent of the others.; ▶ Reply to This
