Thanks for the useless info butthead!

It just says that the majority of blogging is done by women. This was laid out in a scientific study and brought forth info that was previously unknown. IMO that info is not useless and that opinion, for what it's worth was shared by tens of thousands of people as evidenced by it's placement on slashdot and the ensuing response both their and in the media of the last day.

I'm not sure why you felt the need to call me a butthead. Perhaps it is insecurities in yourself and perhaps the size of your manhood that make you put others down in order to make yourself feel better. There's no need to do that, I thought we were cool and besides they make medicine for erectile dysfunction now. There's no need to be so bitter.

u guys should place the overview of the blog on the side of the main page. like the nudibar

 

[fritz]

That's a good idea.

um, leaving the ED comments aside

what if the blogs replaced the nudibar? and the nudi bar moved somewhere else? the home page needs some reorganizing we have so many features that are hidden now.

 

[fritz]

I think that'd be cool.

Guys, seriously, one of our members who shall remain nameless, has his blog as his signature. Out of sheer curiosity, I had to check it out. By far it was even more lame than viewing someone's tank videos. Thank threads are bad enough. No tank blogs. It's like when you introduce yourself to a class... no one is listening to you because the people before you are wondering what they would say differently and the people after you are still preoccupied with what they are going to say for either one to care what you have to say. The "my tank" page wouldn't exactly be viewed as a success either. Since no one fills one out, no one probably reads them either. How much closer to a blog can you get.
How about filling the spot where the nudibar is with current topics which actually generate some interest from all forums? Maybe equipment discussions? Just my 2 cents.

oh. I just signed on to RC and now I get it. Please disregard my previous post. RC has Blogs@RC.
Great job, guys. Very original.
