Is My Blog Bloggable?
-
I am brand new to the blogging world. I just set up the following:
http://www.ThePepper.WordPress.com
Would someone visit it and see if it is set up right, so that others can blog on it?
also, I wanted to set the “permalink” setting in order to be Google-friendly. I’m not able to find it in the admin menus. Does it still exits, is it necessary?

(1) The tags you attached make it appear that you are advertising and may be preparing to transact business on your wordpress.com blog.
WordPress.com blogs are non-commercial blogs. The ToS does you agreed to to get a blog here does allow blogs here to be used to drive traffic to third party sites and the policy does not allow advertising. Only one link to your business is allowed either in the sidebar or on your about page. Violation of the ToS and policy can lead to blog suspension or deletion.

http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/12/08/adsense/If you wish to transact business on a blog and use it to advertise then your best bet is to download free software from http://wordpress.org and self host your blog or hire a webhost to do so. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=3700&page&replies=1

(2) Blogs are not forums. If you wish to add other bloggers then please read these to determine what role to assign them and how to add them to the blog http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/12/what-are-the-different-roles/

(3) Every title is a permalink on every post you make and the title of your blog is a permalink also.
(4) I have clicked your username and found that it is linked to a commercial website rather than to a wordpress.com blog. If you want help with a wordpress.com blog then please link your username to the url of your wordpress.com blog.

also, the URL for your blog is http://thepepper.wordpress.com/ not http://www.ThePepper.WordPress.com (note the lack of www in the correct URL)

To answer the question though, the answer is no. It is not bloggable. Putting multiple javascript driven youtube videos like that within a single page will crash many browsers on lower end computers. It’s not recommended.
Either put them after a more tag or drop down the number of pages displayed to one and use the Recent posts widget within your sidebar to direct folks to the other videos.
And I question the commericalness of the blog as well although technecially nothing’s being sold there.
