Are you interested in blogging?

Today I will tell you a little about blogging.

What is a blog? A blog is a Web-Log, or an online journal. You can use it to share your writing with other people. It is also possible to make a private blog, that other people cannot see, or to limit it to a few friends.

To make a blog, you need to log on to the computer. Go to www.blogger.com
Blogger is available in many languages. It is owned by Google.
Click the orange arrow to start to create your blog. You will need to provide some information.
……1. Your User Name
……2. Your Password
……3. Your Display Name (the name people will see)
You can also write your profile there.
You can customize the appearance, colors, background, fonts, and other parts of your blog. You can add images, news, and other "gadgets".
Search in blogger and you may find many interesting blogs. Japanes who are blogging in English or foreigners who are blogging in Japanese, or bilingual blogs are an interesting idea.

If you make a blog, send me an e-mail to tell me about it. Use your Bunkyo e-mail account or another account and write to me at bbrinkman@ell.u-... (you know).
