Hi. I'm trying to figure out Blogs and Feeds and keep reading help files but don't seem to be getting too far.

I have:

*a server (hostmysite.com)

*a blog on LiveJournal that is easy enough to attach to my profile (so I've done that. no problem.)

*a blog on blotterati.com. it doesn't seem to feed. it is located at blotterati.com/weblog/blog.htm. it is an .htm extension and has no feed capability.

What I can't seem to figure out is how to create one blog that lives on the blotterati.com site (hosted by hostmysite.com) that I can syndicate via a Feed and load to my tribe.net profile page. I seem to have all the right ingredients I am just pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to put them all together. And, in the meantime, I just keep posting to my livejournal blog 'cos it's easy. I'd just like something a bit more personalized than just a live journal blog.

Suggestions? (Thanks in advance.)

    When I went to your blog is appeared to be running on Blogger. My guess is that blotterati is making the URL which is why you don't seem to have a feed fm here. If you can find out what the actual underlying URL is (it should something like http://{handle}.blogspot.com/ . For example, my Blogger blog is at direwolff.blogspot.com/ . There was a time where I was using www.direwolff.net/ to get to it, but this didn't allow me to use it as a feed.

    Hope this helps keep some hair on your head ;-)
