[Rik Brown]

We now have online a blog system that you will note when in the Forums area of TRAVEL.com. In one of menu bars, you will see the "Blogs" menu selection where members can create their own blogs.

Please be sure to follow the normal system rules. These blogs are for personal usage only. No advertising or commercial usage is allowed. All rules that apply to messaging also apply to the blogs. Anyone violating the rules will simply have their user account terminated without explanation (takes all of about 2 seconds).

Please feel free to post about your travels, local restaurants you might have recently visited, tips about your own hometown, etc. Be sure to invite your friends to participate. You blog address will be in the following format:

We've decided to allow limited "commericial" blogs by SMALL travel companies that do not compete with the companies promoted here at TRAVEL.com. Essentially, those companies will be selling a local travel industry product and thus their sites will not be embedded with advertising.

See my comments in the Blog area for more details.

Have fun! -- Rik
