VIRB

Friends, Music and Video... we're helping you stay connected.

Your other blog, now on VIRB

30 comments | posted Apr 17

In response to your overwhelming requests, the ability to display a blog (on your VIRB profile) from your external website is nearly ready for launch!! We're in the midst of some final beta testing on our development servers; and therefore, before week's end, you will find a new "External Blog" option gracing the toolbar of your Blog section.

The process includes nothing more than entering the URL to your RSS/Atom Feed, giving your external blog feed a name, choosing whether or not to allow comments on VIRB and then stating that you have the right to call it your own. Plain and simple. Bloggers rejoice!

Peace, love and the downfall of dual content entry,

B

Any blog site that has an RSS/Atom/RDF feed. I'm pretty sure 99% of blog sites have this feature.

Don't forget to add that

1.) If you make a new post on your external blog, it will automatically appear in VIRB
2.) It will also appear in your recent activity

Brandon Aaskov says:

I like the idea of reposting, but if one of my friends is a crazy blogger, is there a way for me to avoid seeing 50 of their posts a day in my recent activity?

posted Apr 17


Brad says:

Brandon, it's will lump all their daily posts into one recent activity entry.
"XYZ has posted some new blogs". Booyah!
