So, Thursday night (9/20/11) and back in class. Today we hope to learn how to add the bells and whistles to blogs. I'm fortunate in that I seem able to access my account immediately. My poor neighbors can get through their front door.
1. The Stats setting will allow you to track visitors.
2. I've already learned I can change the color of my fish by clicking on the icon in the lower right hand corner. That was fun!
3. I also learned about labels. So hopefully future enthusiasts will navigate my blog notes more easily.
4. Personality in font. Hmmm... Sometimes I find that very irritating. So I may use that occasionally.
5. Links. Click on links, then enter the web address - pretty user friendly. www.brainpop.com (beware, this site charges).
6. We're also practicing editing posts.
7. Upload images, use picture icon next to link. Here's a picture from my website, www.homeworkwarriors.com. Fun, huh?
8. Images can be adjusted by simply clicking on the picture and a row of icons appear that allows you to size, justify, and add captions.
9. Here's a cute youtube. So that came from the movie icon, which allowed me to go straight into youtube.
10. You can also add numbers and bullets - just like Word allows.
11. The icon " will automatically indent quotes. Handy if you're in essay format.
12. The page break will just add lines that can separate text or pictures into separate section.
13. Labels. MssBluntBlog.blogspot.com - great blog on technology. I want to remember this one. Helps me aspire.BTW, if you use commas, you can separate the labels and archive the same blog to plural archived subjects.
14. New feature would be to add your location.
15. Post options will let you allow or not allow comments.
16. Also note that posting options will allow you to preset blogging dates. Very handy if you're trying to go on vacation and don't really want to post every day.
