Tutorial Three: Blog Creation task

Blogger is Google’s free tool for creating blogs. It can be found on the web at http://www.blogger.com.
Blogs, short for web-logs, are a form of online journal.

You can use blogs for everything from updating your friends and family about your life, giving your own advice column, discussing your political views, or relating your experience in a topic of interest. (Retrieved 27th May 2009 from http://google.about.com/od/googleblogging/fr/bloggerreview.html)

Blogger gives people the opportunity to comment on other peoples blogs. However the blogger has the ability to make their blog private or public therefore they can decide who reads it. On blogger you can also find people who show similar interests.

Blogger is very easy to set up. You can customise every aspect of your blog. For example the template of the page. You can also add links on your page. For example when we made a video and added it on youtube, we could then add this video to your blog making it avaliable for others to view. The same can also be done with photos on flickr. This is done by adding a flickr photo badge. This is a quick link to your photos on flickr.

For first time users blogger is easy to use. Instructions will help you along every step!!
