Blog for Iowa’s New Running Conversation!Several people have expressed an interest in being able to have a running conversation on Blog for Iowa. It seems feasible now that we actually have quite a few people who are interested in posting!
So, I’d like to re-introduce our “new” feature called Open Threads. Blog for Iowa will keep an open thread up and running in a prominent position – top, left sidebar of the blog. This way, people can post in the open thread and a real back-and-forth can take place.
How to Post a Comment on Blog for Iowa
In order to post a comment on Blog for Iowa, you need to first create a reader account. Go to the Log In component on the left sidebar, and click on Create Reader Account. Then, once you’ve confirmed your email address, you need to Log In on the main page of BFIA (left sidebar). THEN you’ll be able to post a comment.
The usernames have to be one word - no spaces, all lower case. But you can choose a nickname which will be displayed when you post a comment, and the nickname can include spaces, like My Full Name.
We will not harvest your information after you create a reader account. You are actually creating a reader account for the entire BlogHarbor system, our host company, and we have no access to the list.
This post will now be at the top of the Open Threads category, so in order to post in the Open Thread, comment on this post.
Of course, you are still welcome to comment on other posts. You can use the same procedure mentioned above.
So, speak up! We’d love to hear from you!
