As of Feb. 1, 2006, this Salon Blogs program is no longer accepting new participants. Blogs that started before that date are welcome to continue as before.
What's a blog?
A blog, or weblog, is a personal Web site updated frequently with links, commentary and anything else you like. New items go on top and older items flow down the page. Blogs can be political journals and/or personal diaries; they can focus on one narrow subject or range across a universe of topics. The blog form is unique to the Web -- and highly addictive.
How does it work?
Salon Blogs are powered by Radio UserLand, a simple yet versatile software tool that lets you post new items from your Web browser with one click. Radio UserLand automatically builds your site, organizes and archives your posts, and publishes your content -- you don't need to know HTML, FTP, or graphic design. All you need to do is install Radio and begin publishing. You can publish written text, links, photos, documents, and more with just a single click of your mouse.
Radio UserLand also provides other powerful features, including the ability to subscribe to news feeds from Salon, many other publications, and other bloggers.
When you build your blog with Salon, you also become a part of the Salon Blogs community, and your blog will show up on special listings of recently updated and most-read blogs.
