Northland Bloggers

My wife and I have discovered a large pocket of networked bloggers who have attended Northland Baptist Bible College. We've assembled a list of (almost 90) blogs and compiled them into a blog group or "aggregator." This is a convenient way of tracking everyone from our alma mater who contributes to the blogosphere. If you have been or are an NBBC student, and you would like your blog listed, email me or leave a comment here. Unfortunately, myspace and xanga bloggers don't work in the group, so you're on your own on those.

I have adapted the disclaimer of mounty's BJU blogger list--DISCLAIMER: the only thing we all have in common is the fact that we go or went to the same Bible college. The comments listed on any of these blogs in no way reflects the official position of Northland Baptist Bible College. In addition, NBBC is not responsible for any content found on these sites. Finally, I am as responsible as NBBC is for the content of these pages. I'm only doing this as a service for NBBC bloggers and have no control whatsoever with regards to their writings. If a site gets too out-of-hand, it will be pulled; otherwise, my responsibility to you ends the moment you click a link. [UPDATE: mounty tells me this disclaimer comes from Jonathan Pait, a "career PR guy."]

If you want to have this group as a list on your blog (like it is over on our sidebar), copy the following code into your template and change these [ ] to those <>.

How fun! We have a blogspot blog that is directly linked to a xanga site. Will that work?

 
At 5:21 AM, Blogger Pittsley said...

Elaine,
I can add you to the blogroll on the sidebar, but it doesn't look like the xanga blog has an xml feed. That's what the aggregator needs in order to know when your blog has been updated.

I signed up for a xanga account to see if the xml was just for other xanga members, but it looks like xanga manages publishing differently than msn.spaces, blogger/blog*spot, wordpress, and typepad blogs. Sorry.

Just found this site in a very roundabout way. Glad you're doing this...it's a great way to network everything together.

Two tiny clarifications, if I may. 1.) I go by mounty (like the Canadian dudes, only not capitalized), not monty, and 2.) as much as I would like to claim credit for that bit of Disclaimer Wisdom, I can't - that statement is from career PR guy Jonathan Pait.

I'll have to hunt for some friends from high school. I don't suppose people like Jared Weaver or John Adams (probably graduated somewhere between 2004 and 2005) have a site? If the names sound familiar to anyone, let me know. I've been trying to get in touch with them.

Thanks.

I'm a friend and collegue of mounty's. We actually run an associated web site that aggregates the posts of the BJU Blogs in his BJBloggers list into a single blog. You can find it at http://bjubloggers.com. :)

If you wanted to setup a similar site for Northland, I'd be happy to help (and host the site if you need). Send me an email if you're interested:

mounty,
Thanks for the correction. I think it was originally a typo, but by the time I got to proofing the post I had already forgotten the correct spelling.

Jared Weaver's brother Paul has a blog; Paul might be able to help you find Jared:

I'm on the list (fitzage.com), with the correct feed, but oddly enough my latest items haven't updated in the blog roll (although they work fine in my RSS reader and I haven't changed anything.

Oh, well.

 
At 11:24 AM, Blogger Pittsley said...

the site seems to update randomly, generally once every three weeks, unless you ping (pingomatic.com). we're working on a new site that will be much more regular

I hate to do this, but the correct link (which won't be changing again) is http://fitzage.com/articles/atom.xml

I also have the journal.fitzage.com one pointed there, but it may break eventually.
