The Blogs team updated the platform with some great updates - including shared blogging. Now multiple authors can use one blog -- this is a great feature to add.    I also snuck into the Journals Chat room today to try that out too.

Check it out!

  • Shared Journals - blogging with multiple authors - the ability to Add/ Manage Writers.
  • Journals Chat -  AIM  Chat room created for the JLanders.
  • Entry Pagination - ability to paginate entries from main page and other pages without having to go to the Archives page.
  • Other changes include :
    • New Search header with an additional option to search the Web.
    • New color buttons - green, blue and tan/orange.
    • New product logo on all pages.
    • New look to the Atom/RSS Feed Reader.
    • Banner advertisements on France, Germany and UK AOL Journals

In Memory: Leo Pot

The latest blog that struck me was this article " Yes, People Still Use AOL " on Silicon Alley Insider.  The first comment was negative, the third was negative.   ...

Pizza - with egg on it? A Paris delight!

Tonight at a late night snack after lots of walking, pizza... And boy did it taste good. I have never had pizza with egg on it, until in Paris. But though it looked a bit odd, it tasted yummy. What's on your pizza? Tags: pizza , paris , france
