Buenos días, amantes de la libertad! Good morning freedom lovers! Those of you using blogs.gnome.org have hopefully already noticed that we've had a bit of an upgrade today... blogs.gnome.org is now a WordPress MU host!
What does that mean for you, and other budding bloggers waiting to join you? * A rocking user experience for blogging, built on the foundations of everybody’s favourite blogging tool, WordPress. * Multiple blogs: Yes, you can run more than just one blog! You may want one for yourself, one for your project. Do be nice though, there’s only one namespace here. * Multiple authors: You can invite existing users to participate on your blog - perfect for developer teams to contribute to a project blog. There are a few different user levels, so you can act as 'editor' to a team of contributors, give core maintainers complete administrative access, etc. * Some cool themes to start you off, including the beautiful stylesheetage opportunity that is Sandbox. You can apply custom CSS to any theme using the 'Custom CSS' page under Presentation options. Make your blog *yours*. * Customisable sidebar widgets, and some cool widget plugins to play with straight away. Stick a Twitter or Flickr feed in your sidebar, and let everyone know where you’re at. Under Presentation > Sidebar Widgets. * Spam protection thanks to the Bad Behavior plugin, enabled by default on every blog and automagic closing of comments after 21 days of inactivity. We’re going to wait and see what the spam is like before implementing other measures. * All the mod cons you’d expect from WordPress: XMLRPC, APP, feeds, GUI editor, blogrolls, great management of pages, categories and comments. * Seamless migration from NewsBruiser, and thorough redirection to a much better URL scheme. Not only have we maintained your Google-juice, we’ve enhanced it! * Best of all... Easy sign-up! Anyone with a gnome.org, gtk.org or gimp.org email address can join and start blogging immediately.
