Helpful Hints

Here are some helpful hints for posting:

To post to the blog, sign in on the Blogger home page with whatever username and password you used to join the blog. The next screen you see will be the dashboard page, which gives you several options: you can edit, create a new blog entry, view the blog itself, and so forth. To post a new blog entry, click on New Post, and you will be taken to a page that will let you compose-- it looks like an e-mail editor with a space for title and ways to change the font style, size, etc. Write your blog in the space provided. To see how your blog is going to look, click the Preview link; when you are satisfied with your blog entry click the Publish button at the bottom of the page. Your blog entry will be published and you will be able to see it.

If you visit the Blog and just want to see if anyone else has commented or you want to comment on someone else's entry, you can click the Comments link at the bottom of any entry. You will be able to see other comments and leave one yourself; however, it won't show up on the main blog page.

Oh, and it's helpful if you sign your name so we all know who is responding. We might not know who you are by your username if you created a new one for this space, and knowing who everyone is just keeps communications honest and appropriate.

Feel free to experiment and enjoy!
