Continuing Anglican Blogs II
RingSurf (the best candidate) seems like it should be really easy to set up, but they seem not to like certain e-mail hosts (Hotmail). Despite their promise to answer all e-mails, continuing_home At hotmail.com has yet to hear from them. And so the set-up process is dead, partway through.
WebRing suffers from being extremely poorly documented and slings a number of undefined acronyms and terms at the would-be user. Nevertheless, I got it set up... but the Javascript navigation panel they provided messed up the blog's configuration. I think the panel can be reconfigured, but.... it's extremely poorly documented.
I'm still working on it, but only as I have time.

We'll just keep waiting! Thanks for your hard work. It will be great once it is all set up!

Ah. I responded backchannel to albion's webring question, not realizing the question was posted here.
In any event I think I have found a good webring host, one that will allow easily-customized "navigation bars" that can be pasted onto your blogs.
There's a bit of work involved; one has to set up a "webring home page" that describes the focus of the webring (Continuing Anglican bloggers), how to join, the HTML code to pasted on webring sites (this is a requirement of joining, by the way), graphics and more.
I've seen some pretty elaborate navigation bars; this one will likely be kept pretty simple.

I am making some progress towards the getting a web ring set up. One of the necessary elements is creating a homepage for the web ring.
You can get a rough idea of how that's going to look here: http://st-bartholomews.org/webring/

Now have the basic navigation bars (horizontal and vertical orientations) drawn, and the accompanying HTML to create links out of the images generated. Moving right along... (http://st-bartholomews.org/webring/
