Using Bloglines to display blogrolls

I've set up a CLC bloglines account as a place to store member's feeds and other useful feeds.

This means we can use the Bloglines blogroll feature to display member's feeds in the sidebar of this blog.

The advantage of this method is that instead of manually adding the names and feeds to the blog template, we just have to subscribe to new member's blogs with the Bloglines account and they will automatically be displayed on the blog.


To add a blogroll to your blog from a Bloglines account:

1. Log in to your Bloglines account and click on the 'Share' tab.
2. Follow the instructions under 'Blogroll' to generate the HTML code.
3. Copy and paste the HTML code into the sidebar of your blog template.

Of course this now means that the blog doesn't list members that don't have an RSS feed (they are still listed on the members page of the wiki) so those of you yet to set up a PLE need to get cracking!
