My MU site
I have been following Wim's Multi user blogging work with interest for a new blogging site I am working on called "Blog to it". It will allow users to setup new blogs or import an RSS feed from a current blog. These blogs and posts can then be rated and catagorised.
The idea is then that if you have an interest in "Cooking" for example you would look at the cooking section and look for the highes rated blogs whether thay are on Blog to it or feed in via RSS.
I have been working on this for a few hours over the last week and so far have somthing that looks similar to DrupalMU.org, it would be great if a few people could setup a blog and let me know errors, problems, ideas etc.
Thanks

Status?
Hi Tim,
What is the current status of blog.to.it? The dev site says the project moved to http://blog.to.it but that one says it's offline.

Doing loads of tweaks, most of them using your DrupalMU function.
I have taken the dev site down to get the live site up and running. I hope to launch tomorrow on http://blog.to.it

Replace Drupal Planet?
As a test I added the Drupal Planet feed to my blog.to.it and I really like where this is going. Perhaps you should consider setting up a separate blog.to.it with just the Drupal Planet feed and Drupal on Twitter feed so that you can create a page with most popular content?
Here is more information: Replace Drupal Planet and Drupal Talk with Drigg.
Sure I could duplicate Blog
Sure I could duplicate Blog to it, drop all the content and put Drupal planet and drupal twitter in quite easily.
I will reply to your "Replace Drupal Planet and Drupal Talk with Drigg." post to seek interest.
Thanks for your help with Blog to it, let me know if you have any ideas, and keep spreading the word!
Votingapi / Views integration
Hi Tim,
I'm wondering one thing. On the New posts page you're displaying all results with 2 or less votes, right? I'm trying to set up a similar view myself but I'm hitting this error: http://drupal.org/node/332430.
Basically, nodes that haven't been voted on don't really have a vote with value "0", they don't have a value in the voting table at all. So when I try to filter on "less than 3" I'm not seeing the nodes that haven't been voted on already. How did you fix that?
Sorry, on the "New posts"
Sorry, on the "New posts" page, I am just showing all posts, ordered by date posted.
I have attached an export of my view. Edit: well I tried, e-mail me if you want it.
Ah no that's OK. For now
Ah no that's OK. For now I'll go with your solution of displaying all posts. Thanks!
