"Link" will be sitting on a stool in the garage, awaiting questions about your blogs and connecting them to DML Commons (http://dmlcommons.net/). A link to join the hangout will be tweeted once we go live (check for local time).

If no one shows up, rather than juggling wrenches, there will be some demos of using Feed Readers for keeping up with blog action Oops we did not get to that, next week!. All shall be archived, Google willing.

Thanks to Ken Bauer for calling in and Paul I for just listening.

As an FYI, we check blogs once and hour and twitter once every fifteen minutes, so there might be a delay before your content appears in the commons. If your posts or tweets have not showed up after an hour, please contact me on twitter or leave a message in the Blog Talk forum.

I looked at the places on the site the syndicated posts come in, there is of course the front of the site. but also the categories for Professional Pathways posts and Design Research posts or if you prefer, one for all blog posts.

You can also see a list all of the blogs feeding the DML Commons (note if you have not made at least one post your blog will not show up). A few DML commons blogs were visited to show differences between Wordpress, Blogger, tumblr, and even Medium for blogging. All can work for DML Commons.

I demo-ed (a bit sloppily) how to add comments to a tumblr blog using the service from Disqus, if you are looking for a how to, try this video

If you have more questions, leave them in the leave a message in the Blog Talk forum or tune in next week, we will open the garage doors again.
