Michael’s 10mm WW1 in the Middle East BLOG

[Derek H]

OK Michael, I've got a bee in my bonnet.  Why do I like blogs so much?  Well I don't really, what I like is a number of features that are found in Wordpress - which is probably better looked on as a content management system.  And two features stand out. 

I like the built in site search function, which makes it easy to find things on a site.  And I love RSS feeds, which allow me to follow literally hundreds of web sites from a single place.  I visit one web site, which I can customise to suit myself, and there I can find out what's new on literally hundreds of other sites (mostly, but not all blogs)

if you're interested in what you can do with RSS feeds take a look at Lard Central  http://www.netvibes.com/lardcentral#Lardy_Blogs a place where I've pulled together stuff about games from TooFatLardies from all over the web and made it available in a single place. 

I like your blogs a lot and try to follow them , but I do find it difficult to do so.

Derek,

I'm a man who appreciates your bonnet. I looked at Lard Central before and it's a great idea. Search functions and automatic feeds are powerful tools. I've looked into adding a widget of some kind to my site but it will take take time to see if it will provide the kind of feed you're after. Unfortunately for some, I've gone down the control over design rather than social-networking functionality route. Can't have everything, I suppose, but I'll keep trying.

Cheers, Michael

Just a quick post to update the progress of my cardboard Tangistani village:

Your sites are visually stunning.  You could probably do something with Wordpress and get a look that was just as good, but with the added functionality.

But there would be a lot of learning to do on the way and I certainly couldn't do it.

Good progress on those buildings, that fort is certainly going to be a massive structure

Ah, good old paper towel tubes - what would we do without them?

Ah, good old paper towel tubes

we feed them to the gerbils - at it like a piranha on a gammy foot.

Ace buildings
