Sailing Blogs

   Hi all,

I'd like to announce a new blog system for people interested in
crusing, racing and all things sailing-related. It's called SailBlogs
and is at http://www.sailblogs.com.

If you've considered starting a blog, or looking for a blog host that
is more in tune with sailing, than I'd like to invite you over for a
look. The blogs are free and getting started is very easy.

A blog is also a great way for a club to keep in touch with members about current events.

SailBlogs is an outgrowth of my X-Journal system that is used by
expeditions. When I became interested in sailing, I realized that
sailors and cruisers share many of the same issues as expeditions -
slow or no internet connections, remote locations, sometimes harsh
conditions - as well as an interest to share thier adventures.

I took some of the best features of XJournal and made SailBlogs. In
addition, if you find you need a more robust blogging system you can
directly upgrade into XJournal which provides access to many additional
features, such as automated map-tracking of your postion, with the map
linked to the journal.

Since it's a new site, I'd also appreciate any feedback about it.

Thanks a lot, and I hope you enjoy SailBlogs!
