I was quite chuffed to discover a tool called Feed Gator. Apparently its been around since Joomla 1.0 days; I didn’t know that, and neither did I know of auto-blogging then, so its cool.

As a matter of preference I ignore Joomla’s default content manager and rush to quickly install K2 just because its better and easier for most layman to understand. And so its a big plus that Feed Gator can feed into it; and you can separate each feed into categories, yey!

For the benefit of others, auto-blogging is the stealing art of content from other bloggers via RSS feeds. You take a bunch of feeds and create your own blog articles with them.

Happy auto-blogging!

Now with MU we’re making it as easy to create a thousand blogs as it was to create a single blog with WordPress 3 years ago. By building on the base of WordPress and syncing development, we get the benefit of the huge ecosystem in plugins and themes that has developed around the project.

Simply put : WPMU allows you to create thousands of WP sites/blogs using a single installation. Think of it as, install WP once and use it as many times as you want, with different content, plugins, templates, etc…

Fine you don’t get it, read up on it and maybe then you’ll get it…

As a developer I found that code snippets are extremely useful; needless to say that I end up having billions of little snippets around; and in the midst of it  forget where I put them.

So indeed this is more for my benefit than it is for anyone else.
