vbulletin blog

So ive noticed they launched the blog system:

vBulletin Blog Running on vBulletin.com

Have you noticed the Blogs link up there in the navbar?

The development of the vBulletin blogging product has progressed to the point where we have installed it onto vBulletin.com's forum for the use of all licensed registered visitors, in order to receive feedback and bug reports etc.

Currently we are running only the blogging component, not the social networking part, which needs further work before being ready for deployment here.

Please feel free to blog away with the tools at your disposal, and make use of trackback and/or pingback to link your blog at vb.com to blogs elsewhere - this is one of the primary things we'd like to test on a larger scale here on vbulletin.com.

Before you start blogging, you may want to add a name and description to your blog. This can be done via your Blog Control Panel, a link to which can be found on every blog page, or in the list of links from your User Control Panel. It would probably also be useful to set your default blogging options and create some blog categories, the forms for which are also in the Blog Control Panel.

We hope you enjoy exploring vBulletin's new Blog systems and we look forward to receiving your feedback.

THING IS MAD NICE

Not nice as i was hoping. They are still missing a lot of things :
- Trackback system currently doesn't allow you to ping external systems.
- Missing Tag feature
- Using default template set ( tables all around )
- url's are not seo'd ( i hope vBSEO will solve this )

Currently there is no advantage vB Blog against vBlogetin. I couldn't had a chance to check it but the only advantage i think it will be more optimized.

I hope Adrian gets some inspiration for new features from it.

I hate the blocky looky to everything that comes out as a vbulletin addon. From vbadvanced to this. Everything looks so dull and boring.

Pretty easy to customize

Yea but when every vBulletin add on comes out looking like that it gets old.

But vBulletin blog is not build on tables. If you check the source you can find that they used divs which is way easier to customize.

its horridly coded.

inline styles everwhere, and it looks like they got a case of divitus.

i won't pay for it :S

I would stick with vblogetin

Id like for vblogetin to get live again...lol, I only just heard about this product.....grrrr

It should be back any day SirAdrian says.

It was a mixup with the domain name.

ah, thanks for letting me know about vblogitin. Looks better then the vBulletin blog anyway.

vBulletin Blog 1.0.0 Released - vBulletin Community Forum it is now final.

will their be vBSEO support for "vBulletin Blogs"?

Yes, most certainly, vBblog will be able to be vBSEOed.
