Blogging guidelines

No matter what level of expertise you have with DITA, we encourage you to create a blog on this site.

Create a DITA XML.org Blog if your primary objective is to provide an ongoing journal to:

• share your personal opinions and perspectives
• relate your implementation experiences
• provide updates from committee or user group meetings
• recap conference presentations or webinars

Do not use Blogs if your primary objective is to:

• provide links to other pages (use News, Resources, or Events instead)
• promote company news or commercial announcements (use News, Products, or Services instead)
• ask a question (use Forums instead)
• start a discussion (contact the site administrator to suggest a new Forum)

Inappropriate blogs will be removed from this site.

Naming your blog

You may designate a special name for your blog by editing your DITA XML.org profile. If you don't designate a blog name, your userid will be the default.

To name your blog, simply log in, click on your userid in the upper right corner, select the "Edit" tab, and complete the "Blog title" field at the bottom of the page.

Each post you make to your blog will be published under its own title and under your blog name.

Tags

Optionally, you may associate each of your blog posts with one or more subject tags. Tags can contain multiple words and should begin with a capital letter. See our tutorial on adding subject tags.

Blogs on other sites

If you blog about DITA on other sites, please add a link from our Blogroll page.
