  • WEBLOG TAGS GONE GLOBAL!

    Patrick just launched global Weblog Tags!  Here’s how it works: if you tag a public post, it’ll be shared with the Xanga community.  For example, here are all the posts tagged “xangatags”:

    If you’d like your post to appear on this global tags page, just 1) write a new public post about tags and how you plan on using them on Xanga, 2) tag it with “xangatags” and 3) submit it.  Just don’t forget to tag your post – thanks!

  • You need to put them on all the versions of rich text editor. Instead of just the standard version.

  • Thanks for your comment, we’ll be adding tags to the alternative rich text editor later today!

  • Awesome! I like it.

  • Sweet!  Looking forward to a nifty tags module like you have on the left there.  [different subject] I also think it would be rad if there were numbers next to our audio, video, and photo tabs signifying how many respective uploads a person has.  pete

  • very very awesome!

  • Sweet – but yeah, we need a tag cloud module for pages (not the item pages, the home.aspx pages)

    Noticed something weird – the age of a post listed in a tag page seems to be an hour off.

    Oh and hey – Geocities circa 1997 called, they said they want their “spiral notebook” page background back.

  • this has got to be a bug, right?

  • lolz @ geocities comment

  • one of the few feature on xanga i actually enjoy.
    thank you xanga team.

  • That’s a good step in the right direction,

    can’t wait to see where it leads

  • mad sweet!

    glad to see you all have caught on.

  • Fancy fancy.

    I wonder if this’ll mean I’ll change up my Archives.

  • i like the idea… but i think it’s gonna be a pain to add tags.

  • NICE TAGSSSSSSSS
    I TAG YOU HEHE

  • Great to see that Xanga is a step ahead of me… I have only recently started thinking about suggesting tags for the weblog entries. I am very pleased!

  • this is a suicide prevention site.

    come check us out if you wanna.

    feel free to leave a message, comment, email, whatever. :D

  • wa!!!!Õi §r!!

  • Sounds cool!

  • hey could u tell me how to change my bacground on my website

  • Hmmm…I could waste a lot of time on that…I better steer clear.

    Have a great week. – JN.14:27 Rom.5:8

  • Okay, so here’s my thing:

    If tags automatically go to this global conglomeracy, I won’t use them.
    I want to tag posts for personal organisation, not to expose my posts to the entire Xanga network. There may be a thing or two I would feel up to sharing from time to time that way, and it would also be nice to have the option of making those posts global, but otherwise, tags will be a useless disappointment if I can’t restrict for whose use they’re for.
    (if someone visits my site, I don’t care – let them use my tags; I just don’t want someone who’s never heard of me to immediately find me through them alone.)

  • How can i make my xanga page fit exactly what my computer monitor is?

    I wonder if you would help me

    Thank you in advance

  • The tags aren’t working with Chinese Big5. x_x

  • Yeah, this is awesome you guys!

  • hey how do you make layouts, icons, and banners???

  • Hi, for some reason, the editor won’t work for me at all. I have had my personal site for quite a while now, and it works on there, but on any new sites I make, it doesn’t work. When you click in the text area nothing happens, and I can’t type in there. I have to click “editor not working” and even then, I have to HTML code everything, I can’t make anything bold with CTRL+B or anything. And recently, even the plain editor won’t work. At the bottom in doesn’t have the submit. It’s missing half of the page.
    Isn’t something on my computer that has caused this recent change? The only thing I can think of is we got a new firewall. It seemed to work okay before that. Is there something I can do to fix it without getting rid of this firewall?
    Thanks.
    You guys are doing a great job. I’m happy with all the new changes you have made, I think they are awesome.

  • hey can u help me put a video on my xanga…pleaz!!!!! thanks!!!!

  • I’d like for my “tags” module to be on my main page rather than the “subscribe to/get trial subscription” module.  I know I don’t use trial subscriptions, and there is already a place to subscribe at the top of my page.  I’d also like to see the chatboard on the main page.    Pete.

  • i don’t know if anyone else has this problem but on the two macs we own, our browser (safari) shuts down every time we try and enter a tag when we are first posting. any solutions?

  • hey ya’ll,whats up mary.i am the real miley cyrus.and no body has seen my sight yet exept for one of my best friends(ashley tisdale) so can you tell people about,please.comment me back.love ya.lol

  • u think u ta shit but ur wannabe dicks like myspace fukin is

    *~*The Psychedelic Luau*~*The Astronomy Domine*~*

  • that is like totally rad

    now i can randomly tag stuff to my posts

    COOL!

  • another way to waste my time, great!

  • Awesome…That’s really sweet.

  • Thank you for all the work you do. Plus, you all challenge me to learn more.

  • It seems there’s problem! When I clicked on my tags, it said I haven’t tag any posts which I have! Can you help??? When I clicked your tags here, it also said you haven’t tag anythings yet???

  • I don’t exactly understand the concept of “tags”. Someone wanna explain it to me?

  • gezzzzzzzzz alot of f ing comments sorry how are you doing its been awhile!

  • u cunts suk dick

  • mary… xanga needs multiple protected post groups!!!

  • Ok, apparently Michelle (HappyDeviant) has been shut down for some kind of cyber crime (child exploitation.)  This is ridiculous because I’m a subscriber of hers for over a year now and she has NEVER posted anything like that before or anything that would warrant the shut down of her site!  I have come across several HORRIBLE sites and yet she is shut off for no reason?!?!  I hope this gets worked out soon!!!

  • This is just so unnecessary & too much….its fine to have the option/feature for others but can u guys add a feature to disable that too. I want it off my page. Its great for organizing, etc but i dont want it to be public – as in other people can search it out by tag…if i was to post something – its really just for friends…not strangers. Regardless, some people have use for it – but for those who dont – can i remove this from da site….and wats worse – its right up there above everything else. (like above subscriptions, etc) Its horrible. I can see it being hidden elsewhere on the bottom but not up top on my left links. HEck better yet, its great if i can completely remove it off the site/disable it. 

  • thanks so much ! loving the tagged life!

  • myspace is better

  • hehehe. i came over to say i like the privacy changes you guys are coming up with.

    now i have something else to learn.

    i think i can

    i think i can

  • nice upgrade

  • wow you have been on xanga for a while. lol random comment srry

  • These look awfully similar to the Livejournal and Vox-type tags. : But then again, a lot of the Xanga features are based on LJ…

  • yeah cool tags

  • Pop-ups keep coming up when I go to my xanga. What’s going on?

  • do u reply bak if u comment?

  • How do you delete tags? I added some tags for one of my entries, but I deleted that entry, and yet the tag is still here…*sigh*

  • Hey well ok my cousin and me just got into an argument on xanga is said he thinks that it sounds like zanga when i told him there is no z so i call xanga just like u know what i mean lol so wich way is the right way to say it??
    ~!Payton!~

  • Thankssssssssssssssssssss!

    u are awesome! and the xanga team!

  • hey i love the work you guys have been doing on the site .. but i think u need to make more options for who can visit our blogs. i keep getting spammers now .. ive flagged 3 today already.. yesturday i had about 6 of them. they keep checking out my site and their blogs are all the same –
    Hi there,

    I like going out and having fun while hanging out with friends.  I don’t like eating heartattack-inducing foods aka MickeyD’s. lol 

    they are taking over the xanga blogs as far as i know. theres TONS of them. anyways i think you should do something about it.. like maybe make more options for who can visit our site .. like keywords, by interest, location, age, etc etc. maybe even by rating?  and maybe more security for signing  like maybe delete pages after 2 weeks if there is only one blog entry etc.

    something must be done! this is rediculous!!

  • hi mary i love your site it has alot of fun things on there i use the title link alot i love it love to all shelly.

  • Good day!
     
    You have been nominated by your readers for the Mr & Ms Xanga Awards 2006.
     
    This means that you received at least three votes in the nomination process, but it is likely you received a lot more!
     
    This is the 3rd annual contest, which awards the winner with great xanga blog related prizes. The process of the awards is explained in detail on my xanga, but I will reiterate it here for your benefit.
     
    Should you wish to participate, you will be required to create a caption to the image on my latest xanga entry (soldiers and McDonalds). The caption can be anything you wish, humorous, topical, poetic, or just plain surreal.
     
    These captions will then be sent to me through the xanga messaging service.
     
    Click here to send me a message on xanga!
     
    The authors of each caption will remain anonymous to avoid loyalty votes, and instead the real favourite caption will win.
     
    The four Mr and four Ms Xanga nominee entries with the most votes will go into the next round.
     
    Please do not reveal that you are the author of your particular caption or you will be disqualified from the competition. Please also only send me the caption through the xanga messaging service (link above) so that I can authenticate the sender.
     
    Thank you for your time, I hope you participate! You’ve done very well to get this far already!
     
    Good luck!
     
    -whonose- xXx

  • Awsome!!!!

  • Why aren’t my footprints working????????????????????????????????????????????

  • Something keeps happening like: You have found a bug! I can’t search thoroughly on the blogring search or anything! Is there some thing going on?

  • just a suggestion: regarding the tags list page organization — it would help alot if they were separated by letters instead of being grouped together. even if the tags are alphabetically ordered, it makes it a little harder to find the tags when they’re all bunched together. how about organizing them into groups by alphabet… sort of like how Flickr does it?
