Starting a Blog

Here are the basic steps you will follow for this assignment to create a blog:
  • Be sure to get parent permission to begin your blog.
  • If you do not already have a Google account, go to Google.com to create one.
        You DON'T need to include your full name for your public profile. You can use just a last initial.

  • You will definitely want to add an avatar for your photo, but you can do that later.
  • You will need to open your email in a new tab or window and click the confirmation link to confirm your account.
  • Link to Blogger (blogger.com), the Google blogging software, login to your Google account, and sign up for a Blogger account. 
  • If you want to be private, you can choose a display name that doesn't reveal your real name. This is the name that will appear as the author of each of your postings.

  • Now, choose a blog title and blog address (URL). Choose with care - you can't change this later!
Picture
  • Select an initial theme for your blog. This can be changed later.
  • You are the proud owner of a new blog!
  • Submit your blog information to your teacher.
  • As you have time, you will want to work on your blog layout and contents and on creating a cool avatar.
  • Before you begin writing your first posting, please read these blog guidelines. Also, use these guidelines when you comment on other students' blogs.
