We are pleased to announce that the upgrade to Blogs at Penn State is complete. Documentation for the new system is at http://blogger.psu.edu/gethelp. Some items to note about the new system:
1) There are now two login options. Anyone can now create a new blog by clicking on "Login to New Blog System". You may be asked to activate your Penn State Personal Web Space. The other option is only for users who created a blog before Jan 12, 2008.
2) Comments are not enabled on any blog yet due to an unforseen techincal difficulty. We anticipate the comments feature will be available sometime in the the first week of class. It is our highest priority.
3) Users who created blogs before Jan 12, 2008 can access their older blogs by clicking "Access Old Blogs from before December 2007" This system will be maintained throughout the Spring 2008 semester, but is scheduled to be phased out in Summer 2008.
You will be able to quickly transfer your data between blog platforms (see "Migration Guide" on http://blogger.psu.edu/gethelp). However you will have to reconfigure your sidebar and select a new style.
If encounter any problems or have any questions, please contact blogs@psu.edu
