myBlog® Palm Pre Community Blog Guidelines

[chris]

These are general guidelines related to the Community Blog feature at EverythingPre. If you should have any questions regarding this feature, please feel free to send me a PM.

1. You need to be a member (that's easy enough).
2. Your blog must be written about the Pre, webOS Apps, etc. Anything related to the Pre. If you want to compare it to another phone, that's fine. If you came here for the sole purpose to use the community blog as your personal soap box on why you hate the Pre, this blog is not for you.
3. Your blog is not being used to promote your personal blog. We have plenty of the spam in the forums to contend with, so that would be a no-go in the community blog.
4. It must be well written.
5. Please no outlandish claims in your blog. The Palm Pre will help you lose 30 pounds and give you 6 pack abs. Your blogs are still a reflection of the site as a whole, so let's keep it filled with quality, informative and accurate content.
6. It must be a least a paragraph.
7. If it's a news story, we do encourage you link to the source if it is a major news outlet and or blog. Engadget, Gizmodo, etc. Due to the nature of a "community blog", we will not allow links to MySuperPreSite.com established yesterday. If you have questions about sourcing a story, send me a PM before you write your story.
8. Please choose from one of the categories.
9. Please include tags that will help people find your blog.
10. Once you publish your blog, there's not turning back. Blogs can be edited, but they cannot be removed.
11. If your article is timely, well written and newsworthy, it will likely get "promoted" to the homepage.
12. Authors are encouraged to use their fullname, but it's not required. If you would like your full name listed next to your blog, shoot me a PM.
13. This is a beta. As such, it's possible that myBlog will be discontinued.
14. All blog posts are subject to editorial review, before it gets approved/published.
15. If you become a regular contributor, your blogs will be set to auto-publish.
16. myBlogs will appear in the "Activity Stream" on the home page and within the Community Blogs section of the homepage.
17. Don't break anything and have fun!
18. Your blog must be original, written by you and not published elsewhere.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. You should see Blog in the Pre Social tabs.
