Information for members
The following message was sent to all members of Leeds Blogs
I emailed members in February regarding major changes made to the ring management provided by RingSurf. Much of the useful functionality provided by RingSurf was lost, including the ability to navigate between different sites in the ring. Furthermore, RingSurf pages now seem to contain so much prominent advertising that it’s become a very difficult site to use.
In order to ensure our group continues to grow and thrive, we’re moving to an alternative ring management provider. I’ve chosen alt-webring.com, a free service without advertising that has all the functionality we’re looking for.
I intend to migrate member blogs to the new ring over the course of the next ten days. When your blog is migrated, you’ll receive an email confirming your details. Following the link in the email will allow you to update any of your details. The email will also contain your new ring HTML code, which should replace the existing ring HTML code on your blog. I’m hoping we’ll all be done and dusted by 11th October, when I’ll activate all member blogs that have been migrated and have updated the ring HTML code.
If you don’t wish to be migrated, please contact me now. If you’re migrated and no longer wish to be part of the ring, you can remove yourself from the ring by following the link in the email.
This migration coincides with a new look for the Leeds Blogs website at http://leedsblogs.co.uk. We’re going to make better use of our website and our twitter feed, and we’re launching a Facebook page too. If you’ve any suggestions on how we can do this, I’d be delighted to hear from you.
Regards,
