  Blog Vs.Forum?

  I have a blog here at WP; and I also have a Forum at…

  http://www.network54.com/Forum/578302/

  I much prefer the WP blog over my N54 forum, however, I do prefer the Index-type format of N54 over the scroll-down format of WP (and all other blogs).
  True, the ‘Recent Posts’ feature at WP is helpful in this regard, but it doesn’t have the extended use of the complete indexing as you go of the forum formats on forums/messageboards.

  Is there any way to resolve this on the WP blog.

  Thank you in advance for your response, but please keep in mind that I am not all that savvy w/cyber terminology–although I have been on the Net for a long time with forums, etc, I learned what I know by hit and miss in a closed room by myself, and I don’t understand the language of younger, technically minded folks; and they sure don’t always understand me.

  Best to you

  With a forum you can have others participate in adding to the forum. You can’t in a blog unless you add them individually as contributers or something. Unless you host your site and are tech savy and know the codes. You can buy the css upgrade but that only changes the look of your blog.
