I don't think anyone actually surfs the member blogs using the ring, though; their main website operates as a hub for memes, book discussions, new member introductions, saturday preacher party, etc. Without having a centralized "location" for communication, the loose connection of the ring doesn't really count for much. Oh well.

I had the same thought about a blogroll... problem is that it needs to be maintained.<BR/>I wonder if the best wouldn't be an aggregated feed of all Disciples bloggers. Feedburner and others can set this up.<BR/>Cheers.Joe Weakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379505860158377008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10143682.post-19703429330100290332007-10-16T10:26:00.000-05:002007-10-16T10:26:00.000-05:00Welcome to the ring!

I've been really frustrated with Ringsurf itself- for awhile I was getting upwards of 100 spams a day from unrelated, commercial websites trying to join the ring. Plus a number of the member bloggers have had a hard time with the technology- getting it into their sidebar in the first place, and then after the beta blogger switch we lost a number of people. I think a blogroll would have been a better way to go. I have met a few Disciples this way, though, so it wasn't all for naught.kwpersheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02313821985751564632noreply@blogger.com
