Christmas All Year Community

We're working at making Christmas All Year a total package (what I like to call CAY World ;)). So one of the steps is creating a blog:

http://christmasallyear.org/blog/

We would greatly appreciate your comments and suggestions. What types of things would you like to see in a blog? Do you think a blog is a good or not-so-good idea? Remember this is our community and your opinion really does count.

Thanks so much.

I think something along the lines of a Holiday planning tool would be good - similar to the holiday grand plan, but make it our own.

well that was really cute...how about lots of bright christmas graphics..trees,santa and elves..and such...

Slowly adding to the blog. Check out the latest - CAY Blog

That's going to look great! Your using Wordpress.org yes?

Yep - I like Wordpress just a little bit better than Blogger (my webhosting supports Wordpress ). I think they are both great products.

I'll be posting how my plans (Holiday Grand Plan, Houseworks & Holiday Plan, Christmas Notebook, and Christmas Countdown) are going on the CAY Blog. Feel free to check it out!

Thanks Merry!

Love the blog Mrs C, it's great!

I'm looking for an RSS feed or other subscription widget on the blog. Is that possible?

I have one on there and just checked - it's not on the main pages but on the page with the comments - I'll add it on. Thanks for noticing that.

RSS feed now on sidebar.

Hmmmmm.....its not working. I keep getting error messages. What I'm trying to do is subscribe to the blog by adding it to my iGoogle pages. Perhaps I can't do it with this particular blog.

Not sure if Wordpress works with google (blogger is in the google family, though). I will look into it and see what can be done. It gives you a dropdown list and Google is in the list, but I don't see igoogle. When I click Subscribe (to the google) I get the choice of Add to Google Homepage or Add to Google Reader. Hmm not sure how to get this to work - will keep looking and see what I can find.
