Thoughts.com: A Friendly Place to Blog
September 18th 2008 19:09
Blogs, Forums, Free Polls, or Exciting Prizes, Anyone?
Are you looking for a free online blog community where you can share your thoughts, photos and videos, music files, podcasts, and more--without pressure, deadlines, or stress? Would a friendly and active forum where you can meet new people and discuss current news, events, or any other topic that strikes your fancy, or the opportunity to win expense-paid retreats to fabulous places excite your interest? Does unlimited free space for your postings sound like a great deal to you? You might even already have a blog of your own and would simply like to create free polls to post on it. If any of the above features sound good to you, you might want to check out a new community which is growing up at Thoughts.com--a community which focuses on Blogs, with a capital B!
Thoughts.com: A Great Place to Try Your Hand at Blogging
For those who have the creative urge, yet who've mainly focused on reading other people's blogs, possibly going so far as to comment occasionally, and have begun thinking about trying blogging out for themselves, yet up till now, have been a little shy about doing so, Thoughts.com can be a great place to start. The friendly, casual, easygoing atmosphere of this site can help make the sometimes-frightening prospect of becoming an official blogger a positive, enjoyable, even fun experience, helping you get your "Web feet" wet, with zero performance anxiety.
Something for Everyone
Whether you've always dreamed of blogging, but haven't yet had the nerve to try it, or are simply seeking a site where you can engage others in conversation--or pick up a nifty, free poll for your own website or blog--Thoughts.com could just be the site you've been looking for. Why not stop by and check it out? You may just like what you see.
Happy blogging!

Did you enjoy this post? Have anything to add? If you've never blogged before, would you be more inclined to try blogging on a more casual, low-profile website or an "official," high-profile site? Why? If you're an experienced blogger, do you often check out forums and other social media sites where you can connect with others of like mind? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Thoughts.com sounds like a friendly place! I had not heard of it but will drive by and check it out. I belong to many Ning communities and yahoo groups but don't participate in many discussions. I suppose Twitter is my my most frequent gathering place!

Though I haven't actually tried blogging or interacting in the forums at Thoughts.com, I've done a bit of exploring there, and the site seems like an interesting place.
Hadn't heard of Ning communities prior to your comment. Just Googled the term, though, and it sounds like a fascinating concept! Isn't it great the way we can learn so much from one another?
I've belonged to a Yahoo Group or two in my day, and still belong to a few Google Groups. I know that Twitter is a very popular social networking site, but I've never gotten around to trying it myself, yet. Perhaps one day I will.
Thanks so much for stopping by to comment!
