How to write a blog here in Technical Community
Dear MSFT Community,
I am newbie to Microsoft Technical Community. I have been thinking of writing a blog, but for some reason whenever i goto the blog space, there are no buttons to start one. I have instead posted some of my content in some forums. Is it due to some leveling up required as we ?
Regards,
Chin Lai
ChinLaiThe Thanks for your inquiry. Our blogs are intended for Microsoft employees to share news and information, so our bloggers are primarily Microsoft employees. Occasionally teams will designate an MVP or outside expert to guest blog, but the Microsoft Tech Community is not intended as a public blogging platform.
The forums, however, are open to all to post and we'd welcome your contributions there.

- That's not good, According to my opinion this should be open for all and Microsoft should supervise.
Kamal Pandey Feel free to suggest any changes to Community Ideas.
I don't think that policy is likely to change though. There are lots of places for users to host individual blogs. The Tech Community was not designed as a place for that. Everyone can post in the forums though!
- Thanks, understand the policy now. Cheers
