How to create a blog!

Create your own class blog in Blogger. You'll see that there are many formats you can choose from. The main thing you'll do today is:

1. Create an account.

2. Create a blog and give it a title that has your name in it. 

3. Copy your blog's complete URL. 

4. Submit your full name and the URL as a Comment to this post.

5. Go into "Design" (I can show  you) and add a "Gadget" called "Blog List"

6. Add every body's blog to your blog list. Change the title to their first name so you know whose is whose.
