BlogPaws has now opened its “Community Center”. Its an online place where everyone can hang out and have a conversation with their friends and meet news ones with similar interests. After several different trial and error community platforms tried out by the BlogPaws Team this is the one that made the most sense and is the one that seems to be easiest to figure out for everyone. The Community page is somewhere that everyone can post pictures and videos and no one will think you have gone mad over your cute dog or opinionated cat. In fact if they are really cute or you happen to be an amazing photographer or have funny commentary on your videos you will probably be asked to post even more. Fair warning though any picture posted on the BlogPaws Community site since it is a public site can and will be used each week for Wordless Wednesday. Along with all the pictures you can join the different groups that interest you, learn about upcoming events, and just hang out.
If you are already over there be sure to friend me if I missed you. You can find us on the first page of the members list click on our avatar which will take you to our page (sort of like facebook) where we have a wall to post on, pictures of the girls, and a feed of our recent activity. Under our avatar it says add as friend just click that.
If you signed up to become a part of the BlogPaws Community your invitations are going out on a rolling basis so they system doesn’t get overwhelmed. I can send out personal invites to speed up the process for all of my readers. Just leave your email address below and I will start sending invitations tonight. If you are a PR Professional or a Pet Brand please let me know because there are areas of the community specially for you and want to make sure the invitation you receive is the proper one.
Can’t wait to see you over at the BlogPaws Community Center!
We can't wait to check it out

So do we not need to enter our site on the linky for wordless Wednesday if we are a member of the Blog Paws community (aka. we will be automatically listed)?
I have enought stuff to do with all my social media stuff so I have largely been ignoring all the invies to join online communities. Blog Paws was the exeption. I think the site is great and it's social networking with a purpose – for bloggers to support other bloggers.
Going to check out this new platform…

Hi Felissa – I didn't know that me and the Beaglebratz were kinda getting in on the ground floor of the Community – I am anxious to watch it grow. I got my invite from Tom Collins – anything to do with BlogPaws I don't waste much time before I check it out. I've got one of their badges on my blog so if someone wants to join up then all they have to do is click that badge and they will automatically go there to join up. I was so happy when I saw you were there already.

@youdidwhat… No you will not automatically be entered into the linky each week. I am the one who posts the BlogPaws Blog Wordless Wednesday and since the picture is supposed to be from members of the community I will be using pictures posted at the community site.
@Kim – Tom is a co-founder of BlogPaws and in charge of all the technical things.
Woohoo!! Glad the community is up and running, I just need to get my profile completed and join in…..Mum and Dad had me out all over the place this weekend so it's been a little hectic – but lots of fun! 🙂
Hope you had a great weekend too 🙂

Hi Felissa. I'm already signed on to the new community at BlogPaws and have already friended you there. Yay!! But I just have to say what a great community forum it is. Such as great place to hookup with old friends and meet new ones 🙂
@Lori – I have to agree with you 100%. I love the ning format for our community it is exactly what we need. We tried a few others that were supposed to have more capabilities but they were just not as user friendly.
