Blogging in 2 places…
What was going to be a brief blog post on our “company blog” in praise of our first signed-up user ended up speculating on new media, local politics, broadcasting, and people-to-people interaction (mediated by …well, new media, in particular social media).
So go read it, if so inclined. It’s called Thereness is a people thing.
Congrats on the launch! I still have to go through and kick the tires and write up some feedback for you. Nice to see it out the door and up and running.
One piece of advice: you’ll want to move that company blog to something like “blog.metrocascade.com” — keeping it on WordPress where SEO will just accumulate offsite, rather than for your domain.
It only costs $10 / year to map domains to WordPress and shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes to complete.

Great advice Boris, thanks! I’ve been resident in the protected precinct of Berkman hosting (with concomitant restrictions, too!) for so long (6 years on April 1), most of this is (incredible, as that may sound) new to me.

And definitely, if you have time to give us feedback, we’d appreciate hearing it!

When viewing your blog, the two tabs at the top are indistinguishable: they are both white. When you go to the articles page, the articles tab is blue, slightly darker than the background.

^ I know, but I don’t know why it does that. I have limited options in changing the design – this blog is part of a group-hosted endeavor at Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society.
