First Blog Ever!!

Ok, wow! I've got to say that I love this new Arena feature! Definitely very innovative...kudos to whoever was behind it. I think it is probably obvious by now that user generated content is the wave of the future. Lets just hope that this goes over better than Dunder Mifflin Infinity. In all seriousness, though, I think this is a great addition to the site and we'll see these sort of small scale peer networking sites pop up all over the internet. I don't post as much as I used to, but I definitely can see myself using this feature a lot more. I'm more of a lurker than anything else anymore, but what keeps me around is the personal connections I've developed with the posters on here. I still check the site at least a couple times a day but I'm just not posting like I used to. Maybe I've ran out of interesting things to say?

A couple of questions I have:
-Are the posting rules put forth in the TOS going to strictly apply to the Arena? I would love to be able to post blogs that have political content but at the same time I just can't see it working out. I hope that the rules in the Arena are just a little more lenient.
-I was wondering if it is possible to somehow better connect the forums and the Arena? I would like to be able to directly add friends to my Arena that I see posting in the forums. If this feature is already available and I'm just too stupid to see it then somebody please speak up!
