What is Blogware?
Blogging (or "web logging") has gained more and more popularity for creating a personal space on the
Internet. Setting up a blog with AdgraficsBlog gives you more than just an empty room, we actually provide
all of the tools to make it really easy for you to post to your site. Our Blog Hosting is powered by Blogware,
an entirely new system built by the good people at TUCOWS. It's more advanced than anything else on the
market, but it also extremely easy to use...heck, your GRANDMOTHER could figure this out!
Key Features:
- Blogware makes sharing with family, friends and colleagues easy and fun - whether it's pictures, video, links,
documents, presentations, newsletters or opinions.
- Customers not only want to share what they want, but when they want. Blogware provides customers a few
options with which to post: email, the web, or even their cellular phone. As a standards based tool, Blogware is
also supported by dozens of desktop applications that make the experience even easier for your customers.
- Easy to use interfaces means customers can create a website without being a webmaster. There is no
HTML to learn, no software to download and install and no hassles getting up and running. They can sign-up and
start their blog immediately.
- Blogware is completely secure. Customers have complete control of who is authorized to view sensitive or
confidential information with the easy to use content security tools.
There are many ways to look at Blogware:
- It's a web site management tool.
Blogware makes it easy to add, edit and organize information on your web pages, whether it's text, photographs or files.
- It's a photo album that's accessible any time, anywhere.
Blogware has features that make it easy to upload, organize and show your photos. You place your photos in virtual photo albums and annotate them with short captions and longer descriptions. It even has features for resizing and rotating photos so that you can get the photos from your camera to your web pages without fussing with a photo editing program. You can even use your camera-equipped email-enabled mobile phone or PDA to post your pictures directly to your blog.
- It's a tool that allows you to collaborate with co-workers.
You can use Blogware as a company-wide newsletter for general news and announcements. You can use it as a place to store revisions of a document, or even have your co-workers collaborate on the document. It's also a good tool for keeping track of projects: you can post status reports, assignments or data pertinent to your projects. You co-workers can be notified by email whenever you update your work blog. If you're fond of buzzwords, think of Blogware as a knowledge management tool.
- It's your own personal soapbox.
"Freedom of speech," the maxim goes, "is only for those who have one." Blogware is your own personal publishing service that makes it easy for your to take whatever you want to say to the world and place it on the web. Feel like jumping for joy or ranting? Do have your own commentary about the politics of the day or the service at the restaurant down the street? Are you an aficionado of books, movies or music with an opinion you'd like to share? See any interesting web pages that you'd like to point out to the rest of us? Whether you're a "thinker" or a "linker", Blogware is the tool for you.
- It's a way to keep friends and family up to date.
If you've got friends and family scattered across the four corners of the world, you can use Blogware to publish your "what's happening with me" page, complete with your words and pictures. You can set up your blog so that your friends and family are notified by email every time to make a new blog entry or post a new photo.
- It's a scratchpad for your ideas and projects.
You can use Blogware as a way for keeping track of the evolution of an idea or project, whether it's a paper or book you're writing, an assignment for school or work, or even your plans for taking over the world. Blogware's web-based nature means that you can access your ideas anywhere, and its post by email feature means that you can brainstorm anywhere with your email-enabled handheld device.
- It's a journal.
Some of the best stories out there are personal stories, and the growing popularity of weblogs will attest to that. Blogware makes it easy to enter, organize and publish your stories. Blogware also makes it easy for you to set how public your journal entries are -- you can keep them to yourself, share them with your best friend, your circle of friends, or the whole world.

We have a traditional website for our band that plays small venues in Toronto. Trying to keep the site up to date took a lot of work and wasnt always easy, so we decided to get a blog. Now any of us can quickly update our band news, show venues, dates and times! We can also post pictures to our blog with a few clicks right after the show! - Martin H.
