Abowt The Cat Blogosphere Blog
This blog is housed by Robyn Harton, aka Mom Robyn of HotMBC, since cats can’t register domain names and buy webhosting. (That is so totally unfair that we can’t, but that’s anofur subject.) She holds it fur us so we can play n haf fun n share noos. She pays for the ’spenses up front and gets reimbursed by donashuns if cats want to help cuz we do not haf any advertisin here, cept for stuff to help out furriends by advertising their own small biznesses and such. ML Sherwood aka Momma ML is Mom Robyn’s backup for teknical stuff and has alla the info for the domain name n whatnot in case Mom Robyn falls into a litterbox and can’t get up or somefin. The Cat Blogosphere bloggy is runned day to day by blogging cats from around the world. These are our repurrters. They’s tops! They keeps us straight bout what’s goin on and stuff. Wifout cats like them, we couldn’t do it. Kudos go ’specially to entrepid repurrter KC who sets up the daily noos for us — we couldn’t do it wifout her! Fanks to alla yoo for keepin the Cat Blogosphere up n goin.
"What IS this cat blogging thing and how did it get started?"
Well, we are cats who blog. And some humans who blog about cats. Some humans will tell you it’s really all humans who pretend to blog as cats. Now, humans are notoriously unreliable and kill each ofur over silly stuff like munny and lie about who they slept with and whatnot. So who are you gonna believe, huh? Believe who you wants. We cats don’t care.
The origins of cat blogging are lost in time and cyberspace. Many, many of us were inspired by Psychokitty Max and Timothy Dickens, the first cat bloggers most of us met. Many more were inspired by Laurence Simon, King of the Cat Bloggers and his Carnival of the Cats. And a huge hattip goes out to Jay Dyke’s The Mows cat comic, where many, many of us saw the link to Psychokitty and got introduced to the whole idea of being able to blog even tho we’re cats.
Info about this Wordpress blog
(Possibly borin explanashun, just skip it if you wanna hehehe)
There’s been a lot of confuzion about whether this is a wordpress.com blog. It’s not. And here’s the storee.
- Wordpress is a piece of software.
- It can be installed anywhere that has web hosting with the right settings.
- Wordpress.com has installed the software and hosts wordpress blogs for free.
- http://www.blog.catblogosphere.com is Wordpress software hosted at my Mommy’s paid web host, not at wordpress.com. (When it’s done like that it’s called "installed Wordpress")
- This blog am not related to wordpress.com in any way cept that it uses the same basic sofware called Wordpress.
- The advantage to this is that it’s lots more flexible than wordpress.com (or blogger, for that matter) and we can add neat stuff like automagic signatures for our ree-purrters and Mommy can keep backups of the databases that run it, along with all the pictures you upload, etc.
And that’s why you can’t login to wordpress.com and then comment here wif your wordpress.com name showin up. Hope that cleers up any confuzion!
