I've been in the process of overhauling the blog/journal feature so it's more integrated into the forums. I invite everyone who hasn't already done so, to check out the blog section. Maybe write a blog, just read them, or comment on someone else's.

I added the comment feature today and added the latest 3 entries feature to everyone's profile. I really think you guys will enjoy making a lot more use of the blogging feature. It's a great way to communicate with your friends without needing to create extra posts in the forums which tend to be more formal.

Since the integration is so new, there aren't as many people blogging as I hope to see in the future!

Here is a link to the blog section:

That's neat. Can you remotely link to pictures or upload pictures in entries?

I've been working on it all day and I don't know if I've added that feature yet. If you aren't able to, I will add it in ASAP!! Thats a great idea. I'll also add the ability to link to YouTube videos. What do you guys think of everyhting so far?

The most recent 5 entries are listed at the top of the blog index, so your entries will be visible. Your 3 most recent blog entries are listed in your profile as well. I'm going to add a link to latest blog entry at the bottom of your posts too. I will let everyone know when that is implemented.

I'm very excited about the new possibilities this will have for communicating with other members.

Would this be the place for obsessions then, rather than an obsessions forum? I've not blogged before but I might give it a go.

This most definitely would be a good place to discuss obsessions. And other people can make comments, etc.
