I have just updated the 'design' aka colours of my twitter account and I will see how it goes... I will start using it this month to trial it. The problem with twitter side blogs is that it does not turn up in your archive pages or search results and that was something that I wanted. <strong>Thanks Brandon,</strong> They are some more advanced ways to set up a sideblog. It is a bit more hassle as you have to install another plugin if your blog is widgetised. The differences is that with my sideblog set up it DOES turn up in my archives (but not main rss feed) and search results and search engine results so that is always a bonus. It depends what you are after. I need to look into a twitter as that could benefit me and JCD a bit more. Very cool about excluding categories from feeds, never knew it was so easy. David and Tanner,

If it doesn't work out though, I'll probably use your method.

Putting a little snippet of code onto your website and then updating your Twitter daily means more interesting content, in my opinion. Great stuff David, I subscribed the moment I read this. <em>Tanner Christensen's last blog post..<a href='http://www.creativesomething.net/post/29770175' rel="nofollow">A creative challenge to change your perspective.</a></em> The best part of using Twitter as a type of side-blog is that it’s easy to do and provides constantly updated content for your readers.

Do you use Twitter, by any chance? I've just recently started testing it, wanting to see what all the fuss is about. Seems like a lot of folk are using it as a kind of side-blog (of sorts). <em>David Airey's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/CreativeDesign/~3/257677727/' rel="nofollow">Logo of the month #6</a></em> Nice idea, Jacob.

I always seemed to find myself wanting to post about things but I didn't want to clog peoples RSS feeds so it is perfect. Brandon, I will reply here for now for others as well as email you a bit later today. I have only seen it be able to be set up once per blog as there is only one widget for it. I am sure there would be other ways but I am not the strongest coder out there so I am afraid I can't help you in that respect. I do know however that you can choose to exclude the sideblog posts from your feed or not. Best of luck. Your welcome Rafie, it really did amaze me :P

I'd been thinking of setting up sideblogs on my future blog, but having the smaller posts being pushed out into feeds discouraged me, so this works great! Do you know if we're able to set up multiple sideblogs with this plugin? I'd like to set up two sections: one for links, and another for small updates like you have for your sideblog.. Any help is appreciated and, again, thanks for the information! :) (If you happen to respond to me, could you email me your response? I forgot to tick the "Notify me of followup comments via e-mail" checkbox. x_x) <em>Brandon's last blog post..<a href='http://tenkabuto.m-ka.net/blog/2008/03/21/i-must-keep-my-sanity/' rel="nofollow">I must keep my sanity.</a></em> Thank you for the link to this plugin!

I've always liked the idea of a side blog and was wondering how it was done. Great way to build & maintain some healthy link relationships while subtly adding to your own site's overall presentation. <em>Regan's last blog post..<a href='http://bullfrogmusic.ca/why-do-mullard-amperex-preamp-tubes-flash/' rel="nofollow">Why do Mullard / Amperex preamp tubes flash?</a></em> Thanks for the plug-in reference.
