JackBlog Goes Live

After a weekend of database spelunking, we've gotten JackBlog up and running...old hands around here will note that the names and faces of the innocent haven't been changed...this is simply a reorganization of our staff writers and regular bloggers. JackBlog serves as a landing spot for all our regular bloggers (Ali, Tom, L.W., Donna, me, Cyrus, etc.), so that you can head to a single page or grab a feed to see what folks are blogging about. It will also serve as a central blog for "promoting" items from the Forums that Donna or other editors think deserve special attention. Let me know what you think...I've also moved The Amazing Sportsblog to a top-level tab and reorg'ed some of that stuff...as you can see from the huge banner ads, we've got the JFP Fall 2006 Menu Guide up online as well. Criticism and/or praise is welcome!

I really love this idea--both because my volume lately has been terrible, and because I just really dig group blogs. Nicely done! Cheers, TH

No, it's still there. The JackBlog is a place to feed individual bloggers through. However, I do need 1 to, say, 3, chicks to post to the ChickBlog regularly. If we could get that going, we could feed y'all's pots through the JackBlog, too. Volunteers? Emily? Laurel? Tiffany?

Note, also, that all the bloggers still have their individual blogs.

I've posted to the ChickBlog, I think, once? I'm definitely a chick, but I don't know why I don't go there real often. I pretty much worry about my own blog, and that's it. : Hubby brought me to Cups when I first came down from KY: one of his friends yelled, "Hey! Where'd you get the chick?" :)

I pretty much worry about my own blog, and that's it. : I think I've only posted once myself. There is sooooo much on this site to read on top of the bunch of emails I get daily (which I never finish) and other forums I belong to (which I have been slacking on also). I also have cut back on how long I'm online since I've been fighting with dial-up for a few years. On top of that, my PC's registry needs a complete overhaul so I can stop getting errors, and I am doing more at church. Maybe I'm just worn out - or as some say, wo' out. :-)

I volunteer to be a regular chick blogger. Myspace blog readers suck! JFP blog readers are the shiznit.
