I thought if Trucker had a blog anywhere (instead of an email address) I could tie him in. There's only an official page to "Invite" from and they rejected Trucker2000.net.
Another interesting thing is you can't delete your own blog. You can add another within 360 but not delete.

When I first read this, I thought that you were explaining why Bev looked so young in your WTC photo, and I was berry berry confused. I started thinking that perhaps the two of you are a couple and I never figured it out.
Oh drat, our secret is out! :oops:

Actually that's why I edited it. I couldn't figure out just whatinfrell I was talking about meself. :scratchhead:
You must admit, though, to someone who has never met either of them, the woman in the WTC photo could be Bev, comparing it to Bev's "classic" portrait. If you squint.
Hey! Ya know? Now that you mention it!! :shock: :wink:

Donahoo is correct. I asked and you can't be a friend on 360' unless you are a member of 360'. :( Are all blogs like that? :scratchhead:

Most blogs don't have the friend option. I had never heard of it till I looked at your blog.

I think MySpace (the monster of blogs) has a friends feature.

I'd thought I'd read that MySpace is buggy? No?

Today's headline has the police raiding a number of homes of sites for MySpace predators and teen threats against fellow students and teachers. Sounds like the original Internet Newsgroups. :shock:

att-Yahoo! 360' blogs have 4 settings. Private, Friends, Friends of Friends and Public. There is a panel at the top of each home page which allows you to see your site as others will see it.

Bev H has a real limited amount of information available but when you see a page like that you never know if that person didn't supply info or restricted it to say "Friends," or even "Private".

Now comes the question. Of those who tried to view my 360 blog who could and who couldn't? I'm trying to find just what setting allows what viewing. I believe the "Friends" setting allows one to enter email addresses of those you allow to view the page but then again maybe it's limited to those with Yahoo affiliated addresses.

Anyway thanks for letting me know just who can or can't view my blog.

Reposting the link so folks don't have to go back and search for it:

http://360.yahoo.com/jmtrapp@prodigy.net

I got in fine. Of course I couldn't add myself as a friend or anything, because I don't have a blog.

I see your photos on the left, "no profile data" in the center, wine country on the right, and your two frieds Bev & Diane under it.

All on a martini background. :)

That's what I see. Minus the yellow border, of course. ;)

Nice photos, Di! Especially the cats! :lol:

I can add addresses from my email address book so IF anyone has an interest send an email to me and I'll include you in the "Lookeeseee" view of my blog. There's nothing special there but it could be another way to communicate. And transfer photos and other things only we would consider important. :rotfl:
