Syndicated blogs

Posted by philhassey

I noticed some talk last night about syndicated blogs and how to get your posts removed. The best way to do that is to start putting your posts into a “ludum” category or something, and then I can set this site up to syndicate that category instead of your whole blog.

However, I think it’s cool to have all your posts, even ones that aren’t really game related at all. I mean, it’s the off-season and it’s fun to read whatever the other LDers are doing, etc. So I wouldn’t worry about being off-topic. This way you just get a better readership, etc.

While I’m at it, if you have competed in a couple LDs and want your blog syndicated, send me an e-mail or something and I’ll be glad to add you.

    Yeah, I don’t mind at all, I really like seeing what people are up to.

    But I might change my mind if I want to make a deep and revealing post about hemorrhoids, wearing dresses, and alcohol abuse and not have my respected peers find out!

    It’s alright fun, we accept you for who you are. We already know… we already know. :)

    I’d actually love to see more development blogs syndicated. I’ve quite enjoyed watching Uhf’s animation progress.

    That’s been my complaint about Qatfish. It’s rating system devolved in to the only meaningful posts being articles, or industry discussion. Discussing GTD tactics (Getting Things Done), as opposed to *actually* getting things done.
