    fairly new to using blogs, so i’m curious. can i have my WP blog show in multiple locations, like for instance, on myspace? is there a way that i can do this automatically without having to retype or copy/paste?

    thanks for your help

    What you probably want to investigate is how to “repost” an RSS feed from one blog as a set of headlines or posts on another.

    For instance if your MySpace blog has the RSS feed:

    http://blog.myspace.com/blog/rss.cfm?friendID=yourid

    then you can use the RSS widget or one of the RSS plugins (I use feedlist) configured with that address to put the MySpace headlines (+/- the excerpt) on your WordPress site.

    I’m not sure what it would take to go the other way — you may need to check for the help at MySpace — but the WordPress feeds are configurable. See WordPress Feeds and Customizing Feeds in the Codex to get started.

    Try Widgetbox. They have a feature called Blidget (on the left side of the page – below the menu). This turns a blog into a (resizable) widget – that can be added to other blogs/websites (e.g MySpace/Typepad. They give you the code to add. Did not see specific code for WordPress but you can use the generic code for a website – that adds the widget to a page or post. To add to the sidebar might take a bit more work, but I’m sure some techies in this forum can help.
