Also, talk to these people: http://justus.anglican.org/soaj.html who run anglican.org voluntarily. They may be able to help in providing some ideas about how to go about co-ordinated initiatives - and did some very good pioneering a few years ago. blogs.anglican.org, anyone? Matt Dave

I'm not an expert, but I think I have seen something similar, so I'll try to find out how it was done. Let me have a think about the cloud idea.

Miffy - I'm sure you'd only unleash good chaos. brownie - Thank you. I think you are describing the subscribing to blogs process, which I agree is a very good thing to do. For the tag cloud we need an even more advanced state of affairs - it is this which flummoxes me. Chas, As a commenter on this, an Anglican blog, you are most welcome.

You have to create your own iGoogle account which is free. Once you do that you can create tabs or pages about certain subjects or themes. In fact I use my Anglican tab/page to watch The Cartoon Blog which is how I found out someone want to monitor anglcian goings-on from a single page. In this case, the first of three clickable entries under The Cartoon Blog says Anglicanblogs.com. When I click on it I get the content this entry displayed within in that page or I can double click to open it in a new window. This doesn't quite get at the tag cloud idea and doesn't allow one to directly comment on entries without going to the host site, but does provide a summary at a glance of the top headlines from any Anglican or other type of site that has RSS feed capability. RSS is the orange thingy in the right column under Dave's column. This is easy to do. You don't have to be a computer scientist.

Panic not. The Ning site sounds emminently practical. What I was referring to in my blog post was my former allergy to Facebook. But now after reading the comments of other ehrm... folk of more senior bent in the comments on Anglican bloggers I Have Seen The Light! Blessed (re) assurance is mine. Though I only signed up to join a 'Seabird' group, not yours, I'm afraid. Sorry! ;)Like I said, if I can get in such a tangle here, goodness knows what chaos I would unleash in the Anglican blogosphere, with or without HTML! :D No, no, no, Dave! Panic not.

My problem is that I am not an Anglican. I was, for a while, but am now, as I was baptised, a Presbyterian (Church of Scotland). I can't help feeling, just a little, excluded ...
