 * Hey all,
 * I’m not sure if it’s a matter of misunderstanding the way the wordpress.com blogs
   work or if there’s a problem so hope someone can clear it up for me.
 * I installed WP on my own server and everything with that is fine. I needed to
   set up an account on wp.com so I could get my Akismet key but didn’t set up a
   blog.
 * I showed a friend my blog & dashboard to introduce him to wp and advised him 
   to set up a blog on wp.com and he did. I think I subscribed to it but I can’t
   remember clearly whether it was that or something else.
 * I recently logged into my wp.com account and was surprised to see I had access
   to my friends dashboard under my login?
 * He has left 3 posts and via the dashboard I don’t have the option to Edit but
   can add new posts.
 * When I look at ‘My Blogs’ page it say’s I’m a member of my friends blog so I 
   guess that there was a link to allow me to sign up on his blog?
 * Thanks

 * No problem. I realise the distinction is a bit blurred in this case but the folks
   at wordpress.com are best placed to answer a specific question about your wp.
   com site.
