Klaynos Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I'd like to see more blogs about Lagrangian mechanics. I've got a couple on my todo list, just need to find the time to write them
antimatter Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 For some reason when I go to the sign up page it says that "You do not have the privileges to sign up for a blog".
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 The requirements to have a blog should be listed on that same page. You need 50 posts to be eligible for a blog.
antimatter Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Ah I see, I've still got a while to go. Thanks for the clarification though.
antimatter Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Now that I managed to get enough posts, I'm thinking of making a blog. Is it okay if I make a few science entries, and a few that aren't really science related, more along the lines of various reviews?
antimatter Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Oh thanks. I'm only allowed to start one in 13 days, so that will give me enough time to think of a name for the blog. Any recommendations?
iNow Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 "The blog I named via somebody else's suggstion" seems appropriate.
Klaynos Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Swansonts blog is a good example of science and nonscience and just a bit sciencey in my oppinion.... Mine is a bit dead atm, very very little free time!
antimatter Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 "The blog I named via somebody else's suggstion" seems appropriate. That's actually not bad... but not my style haha any other suggestions? I'm not very creative when it comes to things like this
Paralith Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I like to think of blogs as places where you can write your thoughts about your life or other subjects, that allows you to share these thoughts with anyone who might be interested. I don't have any grand ideas of a huge faithful readership; I'm just glad for a place to record my thoughts, and if I manage to entertain or interest a few other people with them, then it's an added bonus. I'm having trouble changing my blog style. Every time I try to navigate around the site admin area to edit things, I keep running into empty pages that say "### Internal Server Error." Am I doing something wrong?
antimatter Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I just have two quick questions: 1. Can I change the blog name after I make it? 2. Is there any specific reason of why I have to wait 11 more days? I'm not complaining, just wondering. thanks
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 I'm having trouble changing my blog style. Every time I try to navigate around the site admin area to edit things, I keep running into empty pages that say "### Internal Server Error." Am I doing something wrong? I doubt it. If that's still happening (it may have been happening yesterday, but I made a settings change last night that I hope fixed things) I'll have to look through the error logs to find the issue. I had no problem making a post last night. I just have two quick questions: 1. Can I change the blog name after I make it? You can change the name (e.g. "Cap'n Refsmmat's Blog of Doom") but not the URL (e.g. "blogs.scienceforums.net/capn"). 2. Is there any specific reason of why I have to wait 11 more days?I'm not complaining, just wondering. thanks The time delay is a deterrent to keep spammers from using the blogs and to limit blogs to quality members. I may lower it to under a month sometime. We'll see if there are any problems and work from there.
Paralith Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I can make posts, I just can't edit the look of my blog. 1
antimatter Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I hope I'm not asking an indecent question, but in about an hour and a half, I'll have 10 days till I can start a blog, and I've recently read some good science books, and watched some good science fiction movies, and if it were possible, could I start the blog a little sooner while the ideas are still fresh in my head?
swansont Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I hope I'm not asking an indecent question, but in about an hour and a half, I'll have 10 days till I can start a blog, and I've recently read some good science books, and watched some good science fiction movies, and if it were possible, could I start the blog a little sooner while the ideas are still fresh in my head? You can start writing the ideas down now and copy/paste them later.
antimatter Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Right, that's what I started doing yesterday evening
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted March 16, 2008 Author Posted March 16, 2008 Anybody experiencing those 500 errors on their blogs now?
ecoli Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Anybody experiencing those 500 errors on their blogs now? seems to be good. Actually, I'm not getting those weird cache problems either (you know the ones ctr F5 are supposed to clear). Everything seems to be functioning smoothly. w00t.
antimatter Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Just wondering, but what do 500 errors generally mean? 1
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted March 16, 2008 Author Posted March 16, 2008 500 errors (or any error from 500-599) indicate that there was an error on the server that kept it from sending the page you wanted.
swansont Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 I think I got one 500 error on Saturday, but the edit posted properly anyway. The original page saved and posted without any issues.
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted March 16, 2008 Author Posted March 16, 2008 Where? If it's happened in the last day or so, I'd like to know about it so I can try to fix it.
swansont Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Any way to find the number of page hits for the blogs?
