Just curious, just like we can "Watch a thread" is there any way we can "watch a blog"?
I am finding it more and more difficult to get time to visit this site now with so much more work on my hands but Mick O's project build up among a few other
blogs interests me. So apart from going looking through the
blogs history is there a better way?
If the answer is No, I wonder if it would be difficult to create for David and the EO team? and do others think it would be useful?
Cheers, Trevor.

He means a "blog watch" button when the blog is opened which I think is a great idea. bob.

Hi Kurd, what Bob said is what I mean. I am aware of the Thread Watch.

Sorry about that; need to give my specs a polish.
As to the Exploroz
blogs I have previously wondered if they are actually "blog" structures. I say this because although I haven't delved into them too deeply I've noticed when I've browsed them that the RSS indicator in IE8/W7 doesn't detect any feeds. Other blog sites I browse immediately activate the RSS feed indicator so that I can follow them if I wish.

Trevor,
Whenever a blog is changed - eg by being added to or edited, it comes to the top of the list of
blogs that shows on the
Forum page. Any blog will generally stay in that list for a few days making it easier to see them when they are changed. I know its not exactly what you are asking about but it does help to keep tabs on interesting
blogs.
Cheers

Yeah I understand that but I have been a week or even two between visits lately and is much harder to keep tabs on a blog when this is the case. Maybe I should just stop working so hard hehehe
