Hello! Excuse me for the new thread, I searched and couldn't find a similar one. I was wondering what most of the FFXIV blogging community are using for their FFXIV blog? In FFXI I used Livejournal, but now it is a bit outdated and thought I might move instead to Blogspot or Wordpress.
Also I thought that it might be a good idea to keep the OP updated with your FFXIV blogs, so that we have a place where people can find it easily. So just reply with the address to your blog, and I'll place a link of it on the OP.
Cheers!

I'm using blogger right now. The problem is, i run my blog with 2 different languages (italian and english), and since i can keep posting only in the front page and every other page are single post, i need to redirect english readers to my mirror in lodestone blog.
Since this, i'm looking for a better host so i can keep english and italian posts together -
11-12-2012, 08:03 PMEnkiOroHave you tried maybe using a page within your blog, that will show the blog in either italian or english? I'm not sure if I explained myself correctly, I don't know if that has a name either. Maybe someone in the thread will provide a solution!Quote:

I simply use The Lodestone Blogs to talk about my adventures, lore (I'll publish my last lore post tomorrow, ending the 7th Umbral Era story arc), explorations, challenges, crazinesses, Subligaria and Miqo'te.
They won't be closed for a long while and when they will be, our posts will be kept in an archive, so our memories will remain. :) -

Added Cloudio and Yukikaze's blogs. I agree Cloudio, I tried to use the Lodestone, but lack of costumization and not giving us a unique link for it was kind of disappointing to me.

Made some changes to layout...basicly to return like before :|| dynamic visualization is cool, but not much customizable, so i'm turned back to original. Meanwhile i added some new pages, i'll link old entries in the specific tabs later, so i can close lodestone mirror

Sorry for the delay, was out! Added Urist and Yelta's blogs.
Yukikaze, I think I like it more now! The english tab doesn't show anything to me, though. -

I used the Lodestone blog... It only felt right since I aimed for my character's lore... That is my poison, however.

Hi, and thanks everyone for your interest, I'm really excited to see so many people replying!
I'd like to link you, but would you mind giving me a name for your blog? I just don't want to be generic and say "Lodestone Blog" (:Quote:

I'm adding everyone on this list to Google Reader, which I hope is the equivalent of subscribing! I'll continue to do so to anyone else with blogs here!
-
11-13-2012, 06:59 PMEnkiOroThat's a very good idea! Also, does anyone know how to put URLs in our signatures? I seriously can't figure it out. :cQuote:

just a bump : i closed the lodestone mirror. I managed to give an organized view to my blog, so i can post italian and english post alike in the same place

Yukikaze, checked your blog and now works flawlessly! Looking forward if you have pending posts or just your future posts. (:
Also, added my blog on the OP, Enki's Enkredible Edventures. I'm in the process of making a couple of posts, that will sum-up my experience in 2.0 (might end up being 3 posts, since it's been so long since I wrote).
Expect some changes in layout, and thinking of buying a domain, but maybe I hold that until 2.0 arrives. Any input is very much appreciated. -

Hello~
I've been using the Lodestone blog since I've started this game back in August.
No particular title for the blog. I write the blogs in both English and Japanese since I noticed that most Japanese players were using them. :)
Lucina's Blog -
11-14-2012, 08:31 PMEnkiOroOh, that's very interesting! So far most of the blogs we have in the Directory are in English (and Italian, with Yukikaze's). Thanks, yours will be yet another great addition!Quote:

Latest entry on my blog. Making a recap of my leveling experience and some brush strokes at the GC missions. Expect a post soon about endgame content, primals and more. Oh my!

New post is up! This time it's about my endgame experience in 1.0. It includes pretty pictures and I'm using it to shamelessly bump this thread so that more bloggers may join us. Don't be shy!
