Below is a pretty comprehensive overview on blogs presented in an FAQ format.

It should answer all the questions you have about blogs.



Q: What is a blog?



A: A 'blog' is an online journal. Blog is short for Weblog. In recent years, 'blogging' or posting an online journal has become very popular. MySpace has incorporated a feature to allow users to post their thoughts, dreams, random internet findings, or anything their heart desires. The blog feature on Myspace is as expansive or as simple as you make it. For those just looking to post quick thoughts and postings, the blog feature is easy to get started. For advanced users, the blog feature is fully customizable.



Q: How do I get started with my own Blog?



A: All users on MySpace are allowed to post blogs. Once you have signed in, click on 'blog' tab in the main menu bar to view the blog section. Here, you can view blogs from people you have subscribed to, view those who have subscribed to your blog, edit your preferred list, post new blogs, and customize your blog.



Posting a Blog: To post a blog, click on the "post new blog" link under "my controls". You will be brought to a page where you can post a blog. A fter picking a title, type whatever you want in the "body". You can also adjust the date and time the blog was posted, the category of the posting, what you are doing while you are blogging, your current mood, and adjust the privacy. By default, all blogs will be viewable to anyone who visits your page. However, if you only want friends or preferred friends to view the blog, or you want to keep the posting private as a normal diary, these options are available. There is no limit to the number of blogs you can post. Note: clicking the 'diary' option allows others to view the subject of your blog on your main portfolio, but not the body.



Customizing your blog: The entire 'blog' section is fully customizable, just like the rest of MySpace. Users can pick color schemes, layouts, and other features about the Blog section. To customize your blog, click on the 'blog' link from the tool bar once you have logged in. Click on 'customize blog' under the 'my controls' menu on the left side of the page. All of the customization options are HTML-based, so a basic understanding of HTML is needed. If you are not familiar with HTML, there are several tutorials available both on the internet and in local bookstores with information on HTML coding. Hint: once you know HTML code, you can customize your main MySpace page as well with colors, graphics, sound, video, and other features.



Subscribing to blogs: If you find that you are constantly reading the blog postings of a certain user or users, you can 'subscribe' to their blogs. Subscribing will notify you when they post a new entry. To subscribe, you can either click on the 'subscribe to this blog' link on the person's main profile page, or when viewing their blog click on the 'subscribe' link at the top of the page. Your subscriptions can be edited from the 'my subscriptions' link under the blog tab. A list of people who have subscribed to your blog is available under the 'my readers' tab from the blog homepage.



Blog preferred list: The preferred list allows you to be selective in who you wish to have read your blogs. The preferred list starts out empty, and you can add people to the list by clicking on the "find user to add" link under "my preferred list". You will need to search for the user either by their Name, Display Name, or email address. Once you have entered the users information, one of the options under the search results is "add to blog preferred list". The user will not be notified of any changes you make to your preferred list.



Q: Can I see who reads my blogs?



A: Unfortunately, this feature is not currently available. You will see a count of how many people have viewed your blog, but you aren't able to see exactly who is reading your blog (unless someone has subscribed to it). If you are concerned about who reads your blogs, you may want to consider making your blog posts for friends only, or possibly starting a preferred list.



Q: I can only see 10 blogs. Where are the rest of them?



A: On the left side of the blog page, there are 2 links: one says older, the other says newer. Myspace will only display 10 blog posts at a time, but you can navigate to other postings with these links.





Kudos and Comments: Users who read the blogs you have posted can give you 'kudos' as well as leave comments. To give kudos, comments, or both, click on the 'add comment' button when reading the blog to which you want to respond. Type in your message, click on the number of kudos to give (0, 1, or 2), and click 'post'. If you just wish to add kudos, you can do that by leaving the message blank.
