Following on from the review of different multi user blogging tools I’m keen for this section to examine the ways in which different multi-user blogging platforms work.

First up it’s going to consider…

Well, it has taken a while but Blogsavvy seems to finally have been let out of the Google sandpit and is now no.1 result for ‘blog consultant’ also no. 1 for ‘professional blog‘ and up there as no. 1 for ‘blogging consultant‘ as well.

Which means that in this month so far I have received a staggering 7, yes 7, referrals for ‘professional blog’, 3 for ‘blog consulting’ and a square 0 (zero) for ‘blog consultant’! Perhaps my forecast for business through search results might be a little, um, off whack ;D

Well in an official-esque announcement sense I now pronounce learnerblogs.org and uniblogs.org open for business.

Basically these are sites in a similar vein to edublogs.org in that they are seeking to provide free blogs, but this time for K12 school students and university / college students.

learnerblogs.org is basically born of demand. So many teachers wanted to use edublogs.org as a place for their students to set up blogs that it basically seems to be needed and let’s face it, if you’re not tech savvy then Blogger, LiveJournal, Xanga etc. don’t really cut the mustard for what you want for…
