Now I'm waiting for someone who I'm watching to post to their blog so I can see my feature work!

I've thought about starting a blog, just never know what to write ... and anyone who knows me is probably rolling on the floor laughing at that statement because they know I'm a talker!!

Dave!!!
That's just too cool!
Thanks so much.

I thought it would be like watching a thread, but no, it's the entire blog, every entry.
Great.

Lin, I don't think the writers would have a blog if they didn't want other people to read it!

After all, the last option on a blog is "Publish this blog for the world to see."

And in the end...a happy beginning!

Well how cool is this!

As yes on watching a blog. Bloggers tend to be a bit narcissistic and write for others to read their words. Ya'll shouldn't be shy, either reading OR writing one. Enjoy this great ATP feature.

Good going, Dave!

Shoe...off to enter something to see how it works....

Do blogs have comment threads? Timely notifications would encourage those.

Just because it ISN'T complicated doesn't mean I can't MAKE it complicated!

Rick: Yes, you can comment on a blog ... I just made a comment on my first "watched" blog.

I think I'm going to like this feature ... and who knows, maybe one of these days I will get up the courage to blog along with y'all.

Dave, I just want to thank you again for making the "watch a blog" happen. I have really enjoyed seeing the notice that the people whose blog I am watching made a new blog entry.
