I do believe you would have to create an entirely new profile, which can really be a pain. Logout, and then log in. Logout there, and log in as this person…

Create a second google or blogger account, create a second about page. And then build your blog under that profile.

That’s not being difficult, that’s doing the right thing and asking.

Wayne, how can I list different “About Me” info for each blog I have? I am difficult, I know.

Blogger.com Help – Lesson 3 – Customizing your Profile is a very important post. I often see blogs and Web 2.0 users not taken advantage of their profiles. A profile is a great way of telling visitors who you are, what you are all about and what are your interests or to give a snapshot of your business and what products and/or services you offer.

@Revka – I recently made Flock my primary browser as well as Firefox (for using Firebug). That’s a very good point you about the IE browser. I noticed that some add-ons will cause major havoc as well, but it seems more pronounced in IE for whatever reason.

I agree with you on that recommendation and don’t worry about the Url’s. I still need to figure out exactly how the comment is parsed. I know the bbcode tags, but there is also an auto linking check that I need to take a look at.

Aw, well. Shoulda checked to see what HTML is accepted in your comments. The URL referenced above is http://designsbyrs.com. (The Preview should be my best friend by now.) Anyhoo – sorry!

Wayne, regarding things not looking right in IE, that is usually a kicker. I actually design blogs/websites at RS Designs, and IE always gives the most problems. It apparently interprets code a bit differently (and is more persnickety about it) than other browsers, like Firefox. Keep working, and you’ll figure it out I am sure.

I highly recommend the Firefox browser and hope that one day it will overtake IE as “the” browser to use!

@Rose – Thanks for adding that. I briefly touched on that, but perhaps should have said a little more about it. I think you covered that pretty well though. Thanks!

@Pixelhead – Yeah, I need to work that in there everytime to some extent. I’m using the Category tag to label this particular series of posts, which I think will go into the hundreds. I need a better system than that…something more. Thanks for catching that!

Good post. It should be noted, that they should fill out the interests in their profile. The interests you fill out in your Blogger profile are links to other blogspot bloggers with
the same interest as you. Whenever you update your blog, you will be listed in the Browse Profile results for that catagory.
