What is a Blog Network? A blog network is a collection of blogs sharing member authentications, clip art, revenue models etc. Some good examples of blog networks are: Gawker, and InstaBlogs. Some people might consider Blog Hosting firms as a Blog Network as well. By this definition, there are a lot more blog networks. List of Blog Networks has a long compilation. Software to Start a Blog Network I
have modified the SimplyBlog engine so that it can used to start a Blog Network. The authentication credentials can come from a different system (like LDAP or a forum Database such as phpBB), so you don't have to change the world just to be able to offer blogs to your users. As a demo, I am starting Kamat Blog Network. I sent some invitations, and it already it has 3 many blogs.
- Amateur Webmaster Blog -- My technical experiences of maintaining
Kamat's Potpourri
- WeTube -- Just
like You Tube, but just for desis.
- Malli's Potpourri
-- Birds, Stamps, and Studies of D.G. Mallikarjuna
- SimplyBlog Blog
-- A blog about the SimplyBlog software system
- Secrets of Raji's Kitchen -- Carefully preserved traditional recipes of
Tamilnadu
One of the features of SimplyBlog always has been to merge
different blogs into one page -- each blog having its own template. This
feature turns out to be an excellent way to start Blog
Network.
