How do we make this more interactive?

Most of us have book blogs where we post regularly. Reviews, meme etc etc about books. How do we make this more user friendly? Any suggestions?

I also added the forum section to Google Reader.

I'm also double posting my blogs here. The search box at the top right hand corner searches everyone's ning blogs in one go, which could be really useful if you are looking for something in particular.

Everyone is very welcome to start discussions here in the forum and post comments on other people's pages.

I've had fun cruising around to everyone's pages, checking out their blogs and stuff. I love the variety!

I've heard of feed widgets which carry the feeds of many blogs. If someone knows how to create one, we can all put it up on our own blogs and send visitors each other's way.

Tricia - you considered doing a Skype video conference occasionally for the group. If we could get together and actually chat, it might be fun. Skype is free, we'd need a microphone, 15.00 bucks and maybe but not necessary to have a webcam, 30.00 bucks. Yeah, I know -- that's 45.00 worth of books. But I love talking about books we've read and this should be the new thing with online book clubs. Ha - think I'll post to that forum question and ask if anyone does that. Think about it - I'll help!

I am on a tight budget, so the webcam and the microphone is out for me. I am still new to blogging; if everyone made a book blog widget and posts it on their book blog, would that link us together? Judy

Perhaps once a week or month (or whatever) feature a member's blog?
