You can now follow BlenderNation news on Facebook or Google+!
For a long time I’ve been publishing BlenderNation news via Twitter and RSS, but as of today you can also follow me on Facebook or Google+ if that’s more your thing.
Here’s an overview of all my newsfeeds. Follow us to stay up to date with the latest news!
Bart, how come I can see 5 articles in latest news on the right hand side of this page, yet on the home page under latest news only articles from yesterday or before? I have missed so many articles since the new design came out :(
Could be browser caching. Have you tried pressing reload?
Yeah, it’s been like it since the site was redesigned. I don’t know if everyone has the same problem or just me. I visit this site at least 2 or 3 times a day and still keep seeing articles that were posted a week or two before that I haven’t seen before!
Following blender nation on face book now so maybe that will help
Did a page reload help though? I’m using more aggressive caching these days. Traffic on BlenderNation is getting pretty insane these days :)
Ah yes, thank’s Bart, that’s what I’ll do in future. I have tried in the past with no luck but it works now. Thank’s again.
Glad to hear it!
Great! Please add the shortcut in sidebar and footer also.
Great suggestion, I added them! (May take a little while to show up everywhere due to caching)
Yes, Now seeing them. You have 12K twitter followers! it would be great again if they are reminded (frequently) to like Blendernation on facebook.
I still need to fix some layout issues I see now. And yeah, Twitter is doing great, but at the current rate that my Facebook page is growing, it won’t be long until it’s more popular than Twitter!
You should also feature some more of the art from BlenderNation on DeviantArt, there is a large blender community there as well.
I’ve been trying to figure out how to automate posting art to my DeviantArt page (yeah, I did open one ;-), but I haven’t succeeded yet. Any ideas?
http://blendernation.deviantart.com/
I think there are some automatic scripts to do that, but to be fair, I don’t know how they work, or where to get them. I will look around and see if I can find out how
That would be great, thanks!
I’ve been using the RSS feed for, probably years now.
Currently using Feedly to track it, which works very well for me.
Cool, did you notice I added images last week?
i think feedly will always show images as it automatically grabs pictures from the feeds target website and puts them into a nice magazine style layout
what may have changed though is that it’ll supposedly no longer show wrong images (it often just loaded the header image instead of the actual articles main picture)
