Kontain Adds Socialblogging Features

If you are not technically inclined, and are looking to start a blog, Kontain might be for you. For those who find Blogger or Word Press ‘difficult,’ getting started with Kontain is as easy as inputting your e-mail address.

Registered users are entitled to 50 items per entry, 100MB maximum size per file and 250MB total monthly upload.

Just this week the site launched a “Following Friends feature that allows you to follow your friends and friends to follow you. The socioblogging enhancement is designed to get bloggers posts more exposure.

New user dashboards are around the corner, so if you’re a new/novice blogger, now might be the time to sign up. Kontain is currently in Alpha.

CNET once called Kontain, the “Ipod of blogging.” We’re not 100% sure what that means, but we do know the site is easy as pie to use.
