Hosted articles or blog entries

There are a handful of dedicated Aggie blogs out there, but I think there are a lot of regular posters here that could collectively contribute a good amount of material for this site. Please see my response to GeoAg's post in the football forum:

I agree with this point and I know that it has been discussed at one point or another. It could possibly be done someday but so far we've just had a couple of frequent posters on here start their own blogs that automatically go into the news feed (treesap with the USUStats Blog and ProfessorChaos with the Sagebrush Spot). If other posters want to start blogs and get them into the news feed then ultimately that is very easily done. We could also revisit the idea of having dedicated writers on the board but it becomes another things that needs to be maintained.

Yeah, I think you guys would need some more help to pull it off. You and Aglicious should be able to just continue as Site Admins, but maybe you could get a group of posters together that could be regular contributors and then an editor or small team of editors. Not saying you need to do it tomorrow, but something that could be discussed in the community. Maybe you could start a topic on this and pin it?
