Default my blog

I have been playing with a blog at www.rewnews.com I am not 100% sure on the direction of it yet (Initial idea was to publish REWnews on it hence the name) But I am thinking of posting tutorials there as well. Example tutorial http://www.rewnews.com/07/realtor-we...sic-checklist/

Always open to RSS swaps, suggestions etc.

Yeah but now that it's up WHO HAS TIME? Thanks for pointing out the domain Ken, perhaps we can figure out the syndication thing for RSS hehe. Oh btw, when I go to the root of http://www.webnewsforus.com/blog/ I get just your directory, might want to think of throwing up an (Enter Blog) index page or something simple. (Viewing in firefox)

Morgan, I am searching for a clean way to have my clients set up with their own blogs. Easy to upload photos into their bios, photos of their area, etc. Right now, even though the Google blog is easy to set up, if you are not into programming, like most realtors, it looks very basic. Are you going to offer different templates that will be really easy for agents to work with? Give it more of a custom look like your beautiful templated websites? Make it easy for them to incorporate AdSense ads?

Are you talking about templates for blogs Cherie? If so, I dont really have any plans in the immediate future to create an REW template, but maybe I should huh? Would probably be on a wordpress platform. As it is, with Blogger, wordpress etc, it is actually already about as easy as it can be to incorporate adsense, its basically copy paste the code.
What specific challenges are you facing?

I wanted to do a blog also. I did a forum instead. I am pretty happy with it but, I found alot of people just don't post in there.

Thanks Morgan. I see that AdSense looks pretty straightforward. I just need to figure out how to set it up for Google blogs and my personal website.
