What’s special about White Paper Blogs

April 22nd, 2008 | General | No comments

White Paper is based upon Wordpress MU.  This is a really powerful and flexible blogging system which enables you to do a lot more than most professional blog hosting site.

Create a blog here and play around.  Although only a limited number of themes are available by default, there is really no end to the variety and flexibility of your blog.

  • Perhaps you keep a weblog as a journal - short posts every day.  There are themes that lend themselves especially well to this.
  • Perhaps instead, like an increasing number of us, you’d prefer your blog to look more like an online newspaper or journal site.  Many of our wordpress themes are great for this.
  • Maybe you’re a photo person and want to use your blog to share images of your life: good times with friends or growing family.  Wordpress enables you to show your photo albums easily.

If you’d like the personal touch and a chance to experiment with the web. Join today.

If I’m honest to make everything just as pretty as it was before can take some time, but I think it’s worth it. I did it myself.
