showing entries from one of your other blogs

If you've got multiple blogs, you know the difficulty of getting people to visit your other blogs if they've got one favorite. And it gets tiresome both for you and your readers for you to keep posting things like "I've got a new entry up in my Movable Type Tips blog" or whatever.

You can use PHP or SSI includes to show a list of recent entries from one blog on another. Or you can use the OtherBlog plugin. You can display almost anything from the other blog using this, although most people just use it for a list.

I'm using it to display the latest Weekly Islamic Article, and also to display a list of recent entries to my secondary blogs, the Tips blog (this one) and The Niqabi Paralegal.

I also use it on the what's new page of my main website to display recent content, but that's another story.
