buttons

I added a notifier button to my desktop today to save going to see if I have any new blogs to read. Just not sure how this will be viewed in a SOE environment. It's rather like knowing the postman's been because the letter came though your door - in a very smart English way - rather than walking to the letter box. I need practice just to find which account, name and password I can find all those blogs I marked, so that's my self appointed task before I move to the optional exercise. I can see that used effectively, a blog could notify users when a new title comes in, especially if we provided a list of subject areas, topics or (shock horror) even dewey ranges to choose from.

The alert thing on the desktop is a great idea. Walking to the mailbox is just going to extend my 15 minute a day limit ; ). Are you able to do this (alert set up) for all the test pilots listed in this project (on the one blogsite)? I'm curious how this can be done, so that we don't need to visit each individual website to access the new comments posted.
