Ganoksin Project’s Orchid Blog Network

The founders of the Ganoksin Project have launched a blog service for jewelers, metalsmiths, and lapidary artists.

Called the “Orchid Blog Network,” it combines the community atmosphere of the online Orchid List forums with easy-to-use blog tools, according to Ganoksin founders, Charles Lewton-Brain of Calgary, Canada (Left), and Dr. E. Aspler of Bangkok, known to community members as “Hanuman.” 

“A single blog, on your own, may not generate the interest it deserves, but by being part of the Orchid Network your blog will attract both attention and readers,” the founders said in a statement.

With the blog, members can share jewelry-making techniques, pictures of their work, thoughts on design, and art shows and museum exhibit discussions. Jewelry schools can cover events, classes, and other happenings. Businesses can use their blog space as a repository of press releases, company announcements, and provide their staff with a chance to share their passion for their work with the world.

For those with a blog site, Ganoksin offers migration tools which will transfer existing blogs to the Orchid Blog Web site in a single-click. The migration tool will will duplicate the Blog on Ganoksin.

Participation is free.
