Initial Post -- Testing out the blog...
I have no idea what I'm doing, and yet I'm having fun figuring it out. It can be frustrating though. For example, how do I enable multiple authors to this blog?
I have opened the blog up to "anyone can READ but only authors can POST."
As we're still getting everyone online and sharing the Begumpura concept with others, I thought it would be easier to share if the READ restriction was removed (i.e., you don't have to login to read the blog). Only authors can POST. Let me know if you disagree and would like it to remain limited only to current authors to READ and POST.
It is still not supposed to be listed on Blogger or available to search engines, therefore, you'd have to know it's there to find it (at least, that's how I understand the settings).
Also, at Sartaj's recommendation, I have added all of us to receive e-mail notification whenever there is a new post or comment. I'm surprised individual users can't specify this setting directly (perhaps they can and I haven't figured out how just yet).
It looks as though you can specify "Email follow-up comments" when you leave a comment on an existing post. I am guessing that this is limited to comments on the comment you left, not on all postings.
Look right above the orange PUBLISH YOUR COMMENT button.

If you specify "Email follow-up comments", then you can post a response directly from the email notification.
For the feature Neeraj activated, you get emails of all postings, but need to go to the blog itself to reply.
I think.
