blogs4God is moving to Pligg

HealYourChurchWebsite: What we can learn from Web 2.0 success from blogs4God.s mistakes, and it shows a screenshot of the upcoming blogs4God beta powered by Pligg CMS. It is moving towards more Web 2.0′ish with user created and moderated content. I am not sure whether it would resolve its previous issues, especially those that are personal and not technical. Just for the record, various iterations of blogs4God have been powered by customised CMS, Drupal/CivicSpace and currently WordPress.

    Well. Digg vs. the world on HD DVD key issue shows that a community driven site is still not ideal…

    Hi Dean. Sorry when I said “personal issue”, I meant issues involve “people” rather than choice of technology. I have also been running a Digg-like community site since November last year. It is still pretty small (less than 1,000 unique visitors a day), but I’ve already got problem users!

    User-driven is good, but managing users is never easy :(

    No worries Scott – no offense taken, just a bit if surprise.

    But now that you explain it, YES, I agree.

    None-the-less, I’ve launched the beta of http://www.blogs4god.com/ this morning as I cannot sleep w/a pending family funeral in the next so many dazes.

    Dean: what CMS/blogSys did you use for blogs4god before? did you have to do custom coding to migrate all the posts to pligg?
