BlogBridge How-To
From BlogBridge Wiki
The section is dedicated to links or articles explaining how different goals can be achieved with BlogBridge (which will obviously not directly fit to one of the menu items).
A typical example are links to already existing articles somewhere - like some thread hidden in the BlogBridge Forum. Hint: Publish a valuable BlogBridge How-To in your native language on your site and link to it here.
Another example would be some workflow solution like publishing a guide as an OPML file (BlogBridge Menu bar: Guides / Properties / Publishing) to the BlogBridge server and publishing that OPML file to a website (i.e. with [Grazr]).
Full articles should get their own BlogBridge wiki page. Short abstracts linking to some existing solution should be added to this page.
Oh, the order should be like in a blog - new entries added on top of the page or sections.

Java Download: How to get the latest Java software versions? As a standard user (read: no Java developer) you will only need the JRE (Java Runtime Environment). The latest Java JRE version is available at: Java SE Early Access Downloads. On that page - one tab to the left - you will also find the latest stable Java version. If you want to use the very latest BlogBridge features (read: the whistles and bells in the weekly BlogBridge version) you may want to risk installing the very latest Java JRE version (but be warned!).
Every standard user with a BlogBridge final version is totally fine with the latest stable Java JRE version! Even the latest BlogBridge weekly development version will run fine with the latest stable Java JRE version. Combining the latest BlogBridge weekly development version with the latest Java JRE development version may lead to bad consequences (Again: Regard yourself as being warned twice!).
