			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;re hoping the new school year is going well for all Edublogs users and we&#8217;re looking forward to providing you with some great blogging tools for the next year!</p>
<p>And we&#8217;d also like to say a huge thank you to all of you who have become <a href="http://edublogs.org/supporter/">Edublogs Supporters</a> or looked at <a href="http://edublogs.org/campus/">Edublogs Campus</a> for your schools&#8230; you are the people that make Edublogs possible so give yourself a huge pat on the back!</p>

<p>You&#8217;ll be working alongside the existing team, manning the forums, tweets and emails&#8230; and putting the EDU into blogging :)</p>
<p>There&#8217;s no specific experience required &#8211; except that you are an existing Edublogs or WordPress user &#8211; and naturally we have a preference for people with educational backgrounds.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s more, we&#8217;ll be looking at a flexible, hours-based, arrangement at first so that you can easily do this kinda thing alongside your current work&#8230; especially if you spend a lot of time in front of a computer already :)</p>
<p>We&#8217;re not saying that you moonlight per se&#8230;. oh, ok, we are&#8230; moonlight away!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>About a year ago, we started selling domain names and the ability to use your own domain names on Edublogs blogs.</p>
<p>Well, after we did that for a while, we changed over to the Supporter model and that became tricky&#8230; but no longer, because we&#8217;ve decided to bundle free domain mapping in with Supporter, so that every single supporter can now use their own domain&#8230; at no extra charge!</p>
<p>How does it work? It&#8217;s really easy&#8230; let&#8217;s take Sue as an example:</p>
<p>So, Sue&#8217;s old personal blog had the very catchy URL of &#8220;aquaculturepda.edublogs.org&#8221; which was a bit off, seeing as it started life as &#8216;Mobile Technology in TAFE&#8217; and then became &#8216;Sue Waters Blog&#8217; ;)</p>
<p>So, we did the very simple thing of going out and purchasing suewaters.com (for less than $10), and then configured the A record by following our handy <a href="http://help.edublogs.org/2009/08/12/using-your-own-domain/">Using Your Own Domain guide</a>.</p>
<p>Then we visited Tools &gt; Domain Mapping, and simply entered the new domain there:</p>
<p align="center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-379" title="domainall" src="http://edublogs.org/files/2009/08/domainall.jpg" alt="domainall" width="450" height="350" /></p>
<p>And that&#8217;s all there was to it&#8230; now you can catch Sue Waters at&#8230; <a href="http://suewaters.com">suewaters.com</a>!</p>
<p>As mentioned above, this is a new feature for <a href="http://edublogs.org/supporter/">Edublogs Supporters</a>, at no extra cost, which we think is pretty darn cool.</p>
<p>Let us know any bugs / questions / comments / thoughts below :)</p>
