What is Chattablogs? Who's responsible?

Chattablogs provides free weblogs to students, faculty and groups, so long as they carry some affiliation to Chattanooga. It is the collective effort of a few good men.

How can I get my own Chattablog?

Go to the signup page and ask for one.

I kind of want a Chattablog, but I already have a blog elsewhere with lots and lots of entries. I wouldn't want to lose them.

Really? You already have a blog? That's cool. In most cases, we can move all your old entries in to your new Chattablog, and you won't have to worry about losing them.

What can I do once i have a Chattablog?

Pretty much anything you want, so long as it's not illegal, pornographic, constitutes hate, or violates some other rule. For more information check out our Terms of Service.

What's Movable Type?

Movable Type Personal Publishing System is what makes your Chattablog work. It's really kind of neat. MovableType.org is a great place to learn more about it.

Can I customize my blog?

Yes. It's really quite easy. Movable Type allows you control over the layout and style of your blog through the magic of templates and stylesheets.

Where do I find information about templates and stylesheets as they pertain to Moveable Type?

MovableType.org has a wealth of great information. You can also post specific questions in the Chattablogs forum.

Where can I find more general information about HTML, CSS, and that kind of stuff?

Web Monkey and A List Apart are both great resources.
