		<description>Thanks man, I definitely will.

And there is a lot of ground to cover when it comes to blog networks...that&#039;s for sure.</description>

		<description>yeah the subscribe comments is good because it only subscribes you if you click on the checkbox. :)

Im sure that the network will prove a success.

Once the network is about to launch drop me an email and I can write a post about it for www.bloggingtips.com - Blog networks is something that hasn&#039;t really been covered on the site so it would be good to do an article on it :)</description>

		<description>Hey Kevin, never thought anyone would want to subscribe to comments. I&#039;ve always found it rather annoying in the past on other blogs. :) I will set it up though, and make sure people aren&#039;t subscribed by default, so that everyone will have the option.

As for your question, the network bar will be our point of branding, as well as the grand effect site itself. We won&#039;t place any other branding or information on the sites though the members have been great about announcing new members, talking about Grand Effect coverage, and helping out any way that they can.

I know a network bar might seem a bit more &quot;in your face&quot; than the 9rules leaf or something similar, but all of these bloggers really understand working together and sharing credit with each other, rather than just directing everyone to the network site.

I love how easy it is for people to check out the members sites, without having to click first to the network home page.

The next steps will be getting the network site set up correctly with rate cards and information on the members, and then we will be working on placing an ad on those that want to participate that will be network wide. Thus allowing us to pool our page views, and our influence and sell larger advertising.</description>

		<description>Oh forgot to say, you should add the &lt;a href=&quot;http://txfx.net/code/wordpress/subscribe-to-comments/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Subscribe to comments&lt;/a&gt; plugin so that commentators can receive updates to a post :)</description>

		<description>Cool. How will you be branding the network on network sites - will it just be the network bar? (sorry for all the questions, as I said, I&#039;m thinking of joining one in the future so I&#039;m curious!)</description>

		<description>We will be working on handling advertising for the sites that want us to. Everyone is allowed to make their own decisions on how they want things managed. :)</description>

		<description>Joining or starting a blog network is something I am definately thinking about long term. Will the network be handing advertising for all sites involved?
