Make Posts To Your Blog Via Email

Hi everyone,

I test different blogging techniques from time to time, so I can learn, add new tricks and tactics to my bag of tricks, and be able to share new ideas and techniques with you.

Today, I am doing some tests on this free blog, http://TomFisher.blogspot.com, on blogger.com. Free is not ALWAYS the best choice for blogs and I'll explain why at a later time. For someone 'new' to blogging, with little or no money, no experience or skill with setting up a blog on a hosted account, a free service like Blogger.com and Wordpress.com are good choices to cut your teeth on. Especially since they are using the Wordpress blogging platform (software) for their service. I will make a post later on "The Benefits Of Using Wordpress".

Today, I've set up http://TomFisher.blogspot.com so that I make a post to it via email instead of login in to my blog to make the post. Originally, I was planning on using W.Bloggar, a desktop blog posting application, to make this post, but I got very frustrated and gave up. I will try it again another day, and let you know how it goes.

I plan on writing an article, 'How To Post To Your Blog Via Email', next week. I will do it sooner, if you leave a comment and let me know you are interested. First, let's see if I have this works.

Another thing I'm working today, is testing RSS feeds so they appear automatically on another blog. I have an RSS feed set up on http://TomFisher.blogspot.com. On another blog, http://ThomasJohnFisher.com I am able to receive RSS feeds from other sites and show them, so others can read it. At the same time this will add content to the blog receiving it.

Okay, just in case I lost you. This is what should happen when I send this email.

1. This email message will be sent to http://TomFisher.blogspot.com and get posted automatically as a 'Post'.
2. The RSS feed from http://TomFisher.blogspot.com will be sent to and show up on http://ThomasJohnFisher.com, so visitors can read what was posted on the first site, AUTOMATICALLY!
3. So a visitor to http://ThomasJohnFisher.com, will be able to read the post made to http://TomFisher.blogspot.com, that I sent via this email message. Neat huh?

Now, isn't technology wonderful? How would you like to learn all about RSS?

1. What Is RSS?
   
2. RSS Feeds-Why Would You Want To Use It?
3. The Benefits Of RSS Feeds?
4. What Do I Need To Receive RSS Feeds?
5. What Do I Need To Use RSS Feeds On My Site?
6. And much more...
   

I will be writing articles on these, at http://UnderstandingRSS.blogspot.com and at my main site, http://ThomasJohnFisher.com in the days ahead.

That's it for today. Now let's send this email and see how it worked. :)
