Defending the Truth offers free blogs!
That's right! You can now create your own blog by selecting the "Create/Edit Blog" link located on Board Navigation, or just click here. Once you have created a blog, your current profile settings will be inherited into your new blog (location, web site, e-mail, etc.) You can blog about whatever you want just as long as you don't include any adult pictures or spam. Once you have your blog setup, their will be a link in your Defending the Truth profile, and also a link next to the E-mail, AIM, "WEBLOG" on the bottom of all your posts. I hope you all will enjoy this new feature that Defending the Truth has to offer!

Don't underestimate the value or importance of blogs! More and more young people (us) are turning to blogs and the internet to get their news, and form their opinions on various subjects. Blogs are the new journalism, and the fact that so many of them are raw, un edited and un-influenced by major corporate interests adds to their appeal for many younger people. Blogs are important. Of course, like most anything else 99% of them are crap (I am sure more than a few people feel that way about mine), but there are a lot of gems too.

Unfortunately many people resort to myspace. Which has been known to shut down blogs for political-oriented material. Plus Rupert Murdoch wants to take it over and capitalize off of it. And knowing what he did with FOX News, who knows what he'll do to myspace.

It's true. But luckily there are lots of independant bloggers out there, and lots of free service providers to host them.

Looking forward to seeing it. I know I enjoy blogging (don't know if many enjoy reading it, but I enjoy posting it), and I like reading other peoples blogs. DtT really helped me launch my site and grow it to a point I had never previously considered. I am planning all sorts of good new additions and modifications. I have a lot of good ideas to implement in '07.

Just to let you know, the projected release date for the vBulletin blog software was sometime in September. Since vBulletin has been coming up with recent updates to their software package, they had to postpone the release. The blog software is in beta format and should be completed soon. I can't wait!
