Social Networking/Blogging

[Yygdrasil]

Hey guys, I recently posted a blurb in "Latest and Greatest" about how I recently kicked off a blog for my adventures in FFXI. Aside from this being another shameless self-advertisement, I'm also curious if anyone else from our community has a blog... facebook group... twitter feed... website... or some other such outlet for their FFXI, Final Fantasy (in general), RPG or otherwise interesting blog they wanted to share.

I'd like to read more stuff by you guys if you have anything you'd like to share. Of course given the public nature of the postings here on the forum, I wouldn't blame anyone for not sharing things like Facebook... but whatever you've got, I have time to read.

I used to keep a FFXI blog. It was called the Misadventures of Murphie. I wish I'd kept it. :/

Re: Social Networking/Blogging

I've often thought about keeping a blog because I enjoy writing. But I don't have a way to take screenshots unless I were to use my camera, so it would probably get pretty boring.

You should have. At the very least, you should start a new one. The Marvelous Misadventures of Murph.

You dont have a way of taking SS? Why is that?

Re: Social Networking/Blogging

Or if I have a way, I don't know of it. I play on Xbox 360. Please tell me how and I'll start taking them.

Re: Social Networking/Blogging

It is possible, as I use to take SS on my PS2 and use the PlayOnline mailing service to email them. Hit select, hold down the left trigger, then press the right trigger.

HOWEVER! Keep in mind, they will look horrible... on the other hand, the 360 version does have better resolution. (I think.)

The process that led me to that post was probably one of the most convoluted searches I've ever done. I closed this window with FFXIO in to to open google, typed in the parameters I wanted for the search and began browsing whatever forums I could find that werent blocked here at work. Eventually I found one on yahoo answers that talked about how to FIND the pictures from your XB360... but not how to take them... stupid. So I narrowed down my search to things strictly FFXI related, which led me to a post from BG that I couldn't open... so I opened it in chashe... and dragged a link from there that led me to FFXIO... and to that thread. God I hate how the iternet makes fun of me sometimes.

No, I never had anything worth saying anyway.

In fact, I don't know why I said that.

Should have been a blog post...

Maybe. But I didn't. Maybe I'll write a post about how boddy you are instead.

Na, his next blog post will be about how no one ever reads his blog.

If I was going to whine about noone reading my posts, I would never have made a blog in the first place. If your aim is for readership, you're already headed in the wrong direction.

I'm going tobe blogging mainly for me... as an online journal of sorts.

Re: Social Networking/Blogging

If you were just doing it for you, you wouldn't put it online.

Also, you and murphie had that coming, bastards.
